Hello,

I tried install CodeTyphon in my new Windows 8 Pro fresh installation using Windows Key + X -> Command Prompt (Admin) -> Go to CodeTyphon folder and execute "install.bat"

install.bat said me: ERROR: "User has NOT Administrator Privileges" message...

WTF!!!??? I followed the codeTyphon installation from the web...

What's go wrong?

Sir
please wait to release CT ver 3.00
Win8 final has a new security model ...

I've got it working.

Follow the web instructions for Windows 8, but you'll need to hand edit some files along the way...

Before you start, delete the following lines from CodeTyphonIns\install.bat (they're near the top)

REM Check for user with Administrator privileges
AT > NUL
IF %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 (
GOTO GO_execute
) ELSE (
ECHO.
ECHO ERROR: "User has NOT Administrator Privileges"
ECHO Please, run this script with Administrator Privileges
ECHO Installation Aborted...
ECHO.
Pause
GOTO GO_END
)

Of course, when you run Install.bat make sure you are running this as Administrator, or it will fail regardless. Those lines were there for a reason...

Once this step is complete, you need to make a similar change to C:\CodeTypon\setup.bat

Choose 1) Run CodeTyphon Centre

You'll note there is no Lazarus in there. I'm assuming that's because I edited the setup files

In CodeTyphon, choose "Lazarus", then "Remove and build Lazarus bigide"

Then wait

Once finished, it's all done.

While I'm here, a big thank you to PilotLogic for putting this distribution together. Simply superb!
