Updater - Turning on Admin

[wadebrooks]

I was having a bit of an issue with the new updater.... I needed to be in admin mode and I couldn't turn it on by right clicking on the file and going to advanced and clicking on admin.

Here is how I got it to work (I'm using 64bit Vista):

Go to: C: -> Program Files (x86) -> Java -> jre1.6.0.05 -> bin -> javaws

Right click on jawaws and either click "Run as Administrator" or click on "show settings for all users" and then click on "Run as Administrator".

Then go back to the original icon and double click... "Launch ProfitUI Reborn Updater" and your good to go.

Actually you shouldn't click the file to launch it, but use the generated shortcuts either on your desktop or in your start menu. Both will allow you to run them as administrator either by right clicking or setting them to run as admin on the compatibility tab.
As I said several times across the board, once I start changing file locations using the jnlp file to start it _will_ fail.

This was in lieu of it working the way it as designed as my new 'shortcut' gives me an error.

Oh and I didn't change or move anything fyi, just trying to help those in need.
