Hi Curtis,

No, that doesn't fix it (thank you for alerting me to the recommended
installation location, though). I also tried placing it under
C:\Users\<MyUserName>\Documents\Fiji.app, but it behaves the same, with
or without admin rights.

I was able to replicate this issue on 3 different Windows 10 64-bit
systems and one Windows 7 32-bit computer.

Thanks,
Mel
