Cannot get project running on windows 7 machine

GoogleCodeExporter opened this issue · comments

RIDE does not recognize AutoItLibrary.
Install works fine on XP machines.
have attempted to get running on numerous Windows 7 machines but get the same 
error.  The provided calculator tests all fail (not that that is unexpected 
when it can't seem to locate the library).  The AutoItLibrary appears to have 
installed itself in the proper location in Python27.  However, it defaults to 
installing everything else on the H drive instead of C.  Rewrote the code 
install module to explicitly install on the C: drive and this made no 
difference.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
 windows 7, latest release of autoit 

Please provide any additional information below.
All other robot framework libraries function correctly.

I am also facing the similar issue. Without admin rights the AutoItLibrary 
cannot run on Windows7. The calculator tests failed. It throws error as 
"Keyword cannot locate". Is it a limitation of AutoItLibrary that it only runs 
system with full admin rights. Is there any workaround. Any kind of help is 
much appreciated.
