    I am an administrator and should have full permissions to open a WIT from the Server for editing.  Did I miss a step/install?

    Hi Blue,

    It seems that the IDE did not find/access the local machine event log catalog "Security".

    Please make sure the "Security" catalog  exist and current account has right to access it.
