Stalling at: Running (First time run)

I have used NCrunch at work and been raving about it, I am now trying to use it on my personal machine, but the tests never finish their first run.

The test is nothing complicated, Assert.AreEqual(1,2);

Builds and Visual Studio testing are working fine.

The output is showing the following error:

Hi, thanks for posting!

This is a rare problem that is caused by something in the security configuration of your workstation/user account. You may also find that other libraries or tools that you use could exhibit similar problems. Have a look at [url](- BROKEN LINK -)[/url] for more information.

Thanks Remco,

In the end I solved it by allowing 'Users' full control of the NCrunch folder within Users\*User*\AppData\Local and Users\*User*\AppData\Roaming.

I think it may be down to UAC installing NCrunch at administrator level.

Keep up the great work!
