Accessing TradeStation from a different Windows Profile

You can access TradeStation using a different Windows profile (user account) than the profile under which TradeStation was installed. However, the user accounts must be assigned Administrator or Power user rights. If you try to run TradeStation from a Windows profile that is different than the one used when you installed it and the profile does not have Administrator or PowerUser rights, you will receive the following error message, "You must have Administrator or PowerUser rights to run TradeStation" and you will not be able to access TradeStation.

To change the rights assigned to your Windows user account, refer to your Windows documentation under "To change a user's group or account type."
