MobiText 1.1 Fix
After getting reports of this issue, we have found a fix. Originally we were going to release a patch, but it isn't needed.
Cause
The cause is not being able to access the registry under a normal user account running MobiText 1.1
Fix
The fix is simple, and follow the steps below to continue!
Step 1
Start out by going to "Computer" and navigating to your local drive that has Windows installed (most likely C:\ ) and open it.
Step 2
After opening the C:\ drive, you will either have "Program Files" if you are running a 32-bit OS, and if you are running a 64-bit OS, you will have a folder named "Program Files x86." If you are running 32 bit, open up that folder and open the "MobiText" folder, and if you are running 64 bit, open up the "Program Files x86" folder then to "MobiText."
Step 3
Inside this folder, you will see many files, dll's, exe's, chm's, etc. Look for "MobiText.exe" and right click on it, going to properties.
Step 4
Inside of the "MobiText.exe" properties, switch to the "Compatibility" tab and check "Run as Administrator." Then, click Apply then Ok.
Step 5
You are now good to go! After re-running MobiText 1.1 without issues, it will automatically bind itself into the registry. Enjoy!
