[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 688140, member: 32260"] I still have the impression that you have some non-standard settings. SRP in Windows 7 are the same as in Windows 8+, and different from Windows Vista. From Windows 7+ there is a very little difference between Basic User and Disallowed, Default Security Levels. The difference is visible when dealing with shortcuts. I do not try to force you, but please try this (assuming that you are using Admin Account, not SUA): [LIST=1] [*]Run APC.exe and check its integrity level. If it is running for sure as standard user then the below points are necessary to reset SRP settings. [*]Disable SRP using gpedit.exe - those policy settings can interfere with Hard_Configurator settings. [*]Delete the registry key: HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Safer [*]Delete the registry key: HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Safer [*]Install and run Hard_Configurator, next press <Recommended SRP> from the main window. [*]Press <Whitelist By Path> to see if the file path of APC.exe is on the White List (Hard_Configurator can automatically add some autoruns to the White List). [*]Restart the system. [/LIST] Next, you can test again the behavior of APC.exe. It should be blocked (if not whitelisted by SRP). I installed Abelli Photo Book, it has now the new vendor (Bonusprint), turned on Controlled Folder Access and added the APC.exe path to allowed applications. All worked normally. SRP blocked APC.exe and when whitelisted by file path (from Hard_Configurator) I could run it and had access to protected folders. If the above curation will not help, then I would be very surprised.:) [/QUOTE]
