Corrected from:PLC Designer V3.9
Response of the new version:
Packages can be installed via the PLC Designer command Tools>Package Manager without running the PLC Designer as administrator.
What happens?
When installing packages using the Package Manager of the PLC Designer (menu Tools>Package Manager), the following error message appears:
You must have administrative rights in order to install or uninstall a package.
When does this behaviour occur?
When packages are installed, an error message appears if the PLC Designer was installed under Windows 8.
Which products are affected?
PLC Designer V3.8 and higher
Short-term measures/recommendations:
Before installing the packages, start the PLC Designer via the context menu with "Run as administrator".
Evaluation:
The Package Manager of the PLC Designer can be used to install extensions from the 3S Store. This function has nothing to do with the Lenze Package Manager. With the above-described measure, packages can be installed without errors.
