Hello,

I've installed iTunes 7 on WinXP SP2 using my account, which is in the Administrators group. However, when I attempt to launch it under another account (which is in the Power Users group, but is not an administrator), a window is displayed with the following message:

"Please wait while Windows configures iTunes".

This occurs every time I launch iTunes. Sometimes (I suspect only when the iPod is connected) I receive a message indicating this account doesn't have privileges necessary to start a service and the configuration step is undone. Other times, I receive the following:

"An error occurred while updating the default player for audio file types. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation."

I really don't want to give this account Administrator privileges. What are my options?

Thanks.

Go into iTunes preferences>advanced tab, and uncheck "make iTunes default music app." See if it eliminates the error.
