Re: Nightfire Problems

Hi Curtis Glenn,

You might be able to avoid manually granting full access to the registry keys
and data folders used by the game by temporarily changing the user account
to an Administrator account. You can make that change in Control Panel:
Click User Accounts > Change an Account > > Change my account type.
