Get this error after installing latest Fiddler on Win 7 and starting script editor (CTRL-R). Logging as admin account doesn't throw the error. Some DLL with wrong permissions maybe?

Thnx.

Please file bugs on Fiddler here: https://fiddler.ideas.aha.io

What's the version of your script editor? If I had to guess, I'd guess you've got an old version of the FiddlerScript editor which is looking for Fiddler in the default Program Files folder location, but the latest versions of Fiddler install to a per-user path outside of Program Files.

I filed this as https://fiddler.ideas.aha.io/ideas/FID-I-251 because I didn't see an existing report. I checked in Process Explorer and I don't see what it's looking for that's not there. Fiddler is installed as admin in C:\Program Files (x86)\Fiddler2. I tried in a VM with the same install directory as admin and I can't reproduce the error, the autocomplete loads fine. Both host and guest are Windows 7 x64 with Fiddler v4.6.20173.38786 and FSE 2.6.2.0.

Eric do you have any idea where I would look to solve this? Is there a registry key or something that may not be applying correctly?
