Program not working in non-admin accounts

I have installed RockN Editor using my admin account in XP. It does run
properly. In my non-admin account the program does not seem to run. In the
task manager I can see the program momentarily appear and then disappear.
The vendor categorically says his program should run under all accounts. Do I
have a problem?

try giving you non-admin account full control permissions on the program folder

if it works for administrator and doesn't work for non-admin accounts then
the problem is permissions somewhere.

When you ran the install did you have the option to select All Users or Only This
User? Try uninstalling/reinstalling the app and if you do not see the option either
Cancel or use the Back button to select Custom installation.

Go to start/run, and type:
%allusersprofile%

This location is perfect for installing apps that are difficult to share.
