[OpenFOAM.com] [Windows] Is it possible to run with different users of the same PC?

LThomes · May 23, 2017, 19:58

Greetings,
I would like to know if there is anyway I could run OpenFOAM with different users of the same PC.
For example, I installed OpenFOAM using the User1 account and it's working fine. So the OpenFOAM's workingDir is shared with the C:/Users/User1 folder. Now, I want to run OpenFOAM using another user, e.x., the admin.
But, I can't find I way to do so. Everytime I run the OpenFOAM_Start using admin account, this error message appears:
foam error.jpg
And if I run the OF_Env_Create, it gives:
error create.PNG

P.S.: The user Test2 has admin rights, and I shared the C:/Users/User1 folder with all users.

Could anyone help me, please?

Click on Docker quick start terminal from other user account and docker ps -a and docker image to see what output they return
