xpadder still not working in game when set to "Run as Administrator"

Post by michelleyoung79 »

I purchased Dungeon Lords (collectors edition) and was playing without "Administrator" selected and Xpadder worked perfectly.
I ended up running into technical issues (related to the game) and had to "run as administrator" and now the xpadder is not working in the game.
I've read prior posts and selected to run Xpadder as administrator as well but that didn't fix it.
I can't figure out what I'm missing.
Please help!

(windows vista w/ madcatz controller, both game & xpadder set to windows 2000 compatibility )

Before running Xpadder as administrator you must first fully close Xpadder by right clicking the icon in the notification area/system tray and choose "Close". Then start Xpadder as administrator and everything should work.

I had the same problem on Win 8 64bit and Steam Games! You have to run Xpadder with Windows XP sp3 compatibility option! Hope this helps!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The original problem is from 2010, it doesn't have anything to do with Windows8. Also both problems were solved by running Xpadder as admin, there is no need for a compatibility mode with the newest version.
