I just downloaded the latest version and I can't get it to build a footprint. I tried Allegro and a few other output options but I get the same response:
 
"Could not initialize application. Error 42. Try right clicking and chosing run as administrator....."
 
Running as administrator is not an option.

Error 42 generally means you need to “Run as Administrator”
