Wayne Smith Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 (edited) I came across this on the old Sonar support pages, and curious.. I presumed running your DAW in Admin mode would allow more privileges than less? Does it still apply to Bandlab Cake? Thanks Edited February 5, 2023 by Wayne Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byron Dickens Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 You should not run it in admin mode. Causes all kinds of problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msmcleod Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 It's not Cakewalk doing this, it's Windows. Windows blocks drag and drop between programs running as different users as a security measure. There are a handful of old DX plugins that need admin permissions on their very first use, but aside from that there's no reason to run Cakewalk as admin. Also, consider that if Cakewalk is running as admin, so will every plugin - are you 100% happy with giving every plugin you've downloaded unrestricted access to your PC?
