I just upgraded to BI5.

1) 6 hours later, when I open a console session (it runs the service no problem), it asks for user/pw. This is new. How do I turn this off?

2) After entering "admin" credentials, the menu button is grayed out and will not activate. This was working when I set it up 6 hrs ago. How do I re-enable the menu button? I've restarted BI5 with no success.

Thanks.

Thanks. What is/how do I do this? I don’t think I did this with BI4.

Thanks again, will poke around. I’ve jus been using the desktop icon to launch it.

That did it. What happened is that I was NOT using the desktop icon, but the pinned to taskbar icon. For somereason, that one was "User" and not "admin".

When I pinned via rt clicking the task bar running BI indicator, it pinned "User". Rt clicking the desktop icon pinned "admin" to the taskbar.

All is well now, thank you!
