Note: To use PCB under the Windows 7 OS, you must be sure to install PCB using the "Run as
Administrator" option. To find this option, right-click on the Setup.exe installer program icon. In the
context menu, you will see the "Run as Administrator" option. Left-click to use this install option. Be
aware, you must install using this option even if you are already logged in as an Administrator on
your network or personal computer (PC). Using the "Run as Administrator" option will allow the
PCB installer to create folders and files on your PC with proper permissions and security. If you do
not use the "Run as Administrator" option, PCB may appear to install correctly; but you will receive
numerous, repeating file access errors whenever PCB is running, especially when changing
configuration screens. If this happens, to eliminate the errors, you will have to completely uninstall
PCB and then re-install using the "Run as Administrator" option.
