Does anyone know why C++Builder 5 won't work under any other user profile except the one you install it with on Windows XP?
 
After installing C++ Builder 6 using an Administrator account, I had problems using it under an ordinary user account. It was a matter of setting file permissions in the program directory so that the ordinary user could write to it.

If you're security-conscious, you could set permissions for individual files; if you're not, then just set permissions for the whole directory tree.
