As administrator, I installed SF and made it available to my students, who log on as students. Now, when I log on as a teacher, SF works fine, but when I log on as a student, it asks for the serial # each and every time ? a real problem.
I tried installing SF in student mode, then limiting access to a few unrelated programs, but no go.
Here's the question: exactly which programs do users need to have access to in order for SF to remember an entered serial # and to work properly?
Thanks,
Jan B.

Solved, I think: SF asks for serial # each time it is run
Your hint about access rights helped. I went to the root library folder and as administrator gave students read/write access, not just read only. That seems to cure the problem.

Jan,
I got around this issue by installing the Silverfast software
into the Shared Users folder inside of Users.
Granting r/w access to the students opens up
dangerous precedents to allow them into
the libraries folder, into which they could install
malicious shareware.
Here at our corporate offices, we use the Shared User
folder for Silverfast Ai, Suitcase, and Acrobat, and this
enables the users to get their work done, while still
protecting the main drive.
