SofTest & Windows Vista and 7

We have been working with Examsoft, makers of the Softest exam software, on a strange bug with users of Windows Vista and 7.  

 

When taking an "open" or "unsecure" exam, users that compose answers in an outside application - Microsoft Word, for instance - cannot move their text from that application to Softest.  Copy/Paste has been a known problem for over a year.  But even Drag/Drop fails.

 

One must disable the User Account Control security feature in Windows.  This requires a restart.  You can find information on turning off UAC at Microsoft's site
