General
Starting with Windows Vista, Microsoft has introduced the UAC (User Account
Control), which permits running tasks either as non-administrator or as admin-
istrator (without changes of user, switching off or similar).
This function can, however, cause difficulties with client/server installations of
viva.
Problem description
A user would like to add additional licenses for the program; the license code
for an additional five licenses, for example, is added (on the server) in the Con-
figuration program part in the Program administration dialog window
(accessible via the Tools
▶ Program administration... menu item, Licenses
tab).
The file license.mlic, which contains the standard license code and the addi-
tional license codes, is stored in the bin directory of the program installation
(C:\Program Files\Metrohm\viva\bin).
