Windows Journal Text Conversion for non-Administrator

I use two logins on my tablet PC: an administrator login and an every-day-use
login so that I don't unintentionally change any administrator-level
settings. This has worked very well for me except for one problem. When I
try to convert my handwriting to text in Windows Journal while using my
normal login I receive the message, "The requested command cannot be
completed because required components cannot be found. If this problem
persists after restarting, contact your system administrator." I have no
problems converting handwriting to text when using my administrator login,
but this doesn't seem to be a function that should require an administrator
login to perform. I haven't been able to figure out a way to allow both my
logins to use the text-conversion function. Any suggestions? Thank you.

Re: Windows Journal Text Conversion for non-Administrator

Is your second account a Limited account? If so from the Admin account go
into Control Panel/User Accounts then select Change an account. Select the
account you use most often and when the new screen opens, select Change my
account type. You will be given two choices, Computer administrator or
Limited. Select Computer administrator, then restart the system and logon
to the "normal" account.

Re: Windows Journal Text Conversion for non-Administrator

I was thinking my second account was a limited account, but Control
Panellists it as an administrator account. Now I'm really confused as to why
the text recognition won't work.

If you create a new user account does it work? Maybe the registration of the
components is messed up just for that one user?
