Free Microsoft Tool Tests Corporate Apps for Vista Compatibility
Thursday, June 1st, 2006
Microsoft has released a tool to help IT shops and developers determine if changes are needed to 
users’ applications in order to run under Windows Vista.
The Standard User Analyzer version 1.0 is designed to aid developers and IT professionals in diagnosing issues that would prevent a program from running properly without administrator privileges. With Vista’s User Account Protection (also referred to as User Account Control or UAC), even administrators run most programs with standard user privileges by default. That means that applications can no longer have administrator access, and therefore applications that require those privileges will not run under Vista without changes.
The Standard User Analyzer is designed to be run on the developer or tester’s workstation to test and troubleshoot a specific application. Microsoft says that the tool can identify a range of administrator dependencies, including file and registry access, INI files, and security privileges, as well as token and name space issues.
