Bug ID: 45717 Summary: Administrator needed on WinUAE for certain functions Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: yesideez@hotmail.co.uk Distribution: ---
When using WinUAE within Windows, it's listed in the documentation that it needs to be run as administrator mode when trying to manipulate a hard drive.
Scenario: Plugging in an Amiga hard drive to the machine via a USB adaptor or even directly in to one of the IDE ports if WinUAE isn't run as administrator, none of the drives in the machine can be accessed.

--- Comment #1 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net --- Hello Ivan,
is the app complaining about the lack of administrative privileges? Processes started with Wine run with Windows administrator rights by default unless the app explicitly adjusts privileges/token security.
Please provide logs/steps to show the misbehaviour.
Regards

--- Comment #2 from Ivan yesideez@hotmail.co.uk --- No, it doesn't complain - it's just well known in the Amiga community that if you intend on accessing hard drives directly via WinUAE, you *must* run it as administrator. I've tried everything I can to get WinUAE to access a hard drive and it won't do it so I've had to keep a spare laptop running Windows and WinUAE until hopefully this can be rectified.

--- Comment #3 from Fabian Maurer dark.shadow4@web.de --- Under wine, every program has already full rights. I guess, the needed functions to access the drives are simply not available. It's very rare that you want a program to access a raw disk.
I guess USB needs special drivers, no?
FWIW, the source-code of the program is available, should make it easier to track down what isn't working: https://github.com/tonioni/WinUAE

--- Comment #4 from Ivan yesideez@hotmail.co.uk --- There's no functionality to access the drives and I can't read C source so that's not an option.
