Setup SSH server using freeSSHd 1.2.6 on my machine running on Window 7. Error message "You don't have administrator rights! freeSSHd will close!" keep prompting when the app is launched.


Below are the steps to resolve this issue

3. Press Ctrl+G and search for address "0041312A"



4. Right click on the selected "0041312A" address, select "Binary" -> "Edit" menu.


5. Change "HEX +00" field value from "74 49" to "90 90". Click on Ok button.


6. Right click on the modified address, select "Copy to executable" -> "Selection" menu.
