Push2run password

Post by dollanaire »

Hey - I've been using this for a while and love it! I'm however trying to install it on a virtual machine and it asks for a password when running. Am I missing something?

Thanks!

Thanks for the reply! I actually haven't needed to use it now because my VM snapshot didn't save and when I reloaded and reinstalled then it didn't ask for the password. But thanks for directing me in case it happens again in a future install.

ok - thanks for the update.

It has been a really frustrating error for me to track down. I've done some things in the past which seem to have minimized the number of times it impacts on people, but I've yet to determine its root cause.

The thing about computers is that generally if it does x now, it will do x again the next time unless something changes.

However in your case (I assume your loading the virtual machine in the same way both times) why it would not work the first time but would work the second just has me continued to be puzzled.

In any case, glad its working for you.

Cheers, Rob
