Write the same Software\DPLOTJR\shell\open\command key to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE that you'd normally write to HKEY_CURRENT_USER. If DPlot_Start doesn't find the latter it will check for the former.

If I've assumed too much here and you don't know what I'm talking about above, see the Notes for DPlot Jr and DPlot Viewer users section in the Help file under Distribution.

i'm using NSIS as installing program, and i added this line

WriteRegStr HKLM "Software\DPLOTJR\shell\open\command" "" "$INSTDIR\dplotjr\dplotjr.exe"

i added a new user, and i have an error message saying that there is no dplot jr or dplot installed in this computer.
:(

I don't know anything about NSIS, but use regedit (Windows Run button, "regedit") to see if that key exists. If it does, also make sure the path is enclosed with "quotation marks" if it has any spaces (as in Program Files).

If that isn't the problem then check the date on DPLOTLIB.DLL. It should be 5/16/07, version 2.1.0.4. If it isn't, the most recent version is included in the DPlot Jr distribution.

If none of this helps, please let me know exactly what the error message says. In the case of not finding a registry entry you should get:

No registry entries for any of HKEY_CURRENT_USER|HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\DPLOT|DPLOTJR

Your registry entry looks fine.

You need version 2.1.0.4 of DPLOTLIB.DLL. You can get it by installing the latest DPlot Jr.

You can also generate a working register key by manually execute dPlot Jr in your app installation dir.

Only for the current user, though.

Does this apply to DPLOT itself, as well as DPLOT JR?

On a Windows 10 Home machine, DPLOT was installed and registered using an account with administrator permissions. In a different user account with less permissions on same computer, DPLOT says it isn't registered.

The license information, once successfully entered, is saved to %appdata%\DPlot\dplot.ini.

On Windows 10 with an English-speaking user, %appdata% is a shortcut to

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\DPlot

This SHOULD work regardless of privileges.

And I just noticed you're talking about the same computer. In this case you'll need to enter your registration number twice, once for each user account.
