I have been using the software for several weeks now without any problem (running on Windows 8 Pro). But since today I have been having error messages upon launch of the software stating the following error message: Failure in settings computer clock. Administrative privileges required to update computer clock. Any suggestion on what I can do to correct this problem? I am able to do it by going into compatibility settings and choosing the "run this program as administrator" but what concerns me that is my user account is already an administrator and that I have been using this software for weeks without having this problem.

Hi, did you recently switched on the option to sync the computer clock, the option is in "tools" -> "time synchronization".

No, I had done that a while back (switched on the option for time synchronization at startup) and everything was running smooth. But recently, I am getting the error message stating that I need to run the software as an administrator (although my user account is already an administrator user account). Why would this happen?

On Windows 8 (and 7 and Vista) programs are run as non-admin even if you are logged in as admin (it's a security measure). If you wish to run ViceVersa as admin (and allow it to sync the clock), you'll need to go into compatibility settings and choosing the "run this program as administrator".
