I installed POPFILE 1.1.1 on a Windows 2008 Server R2 Enterprise and successfully restored an instance of POPFILE coming from a Windows 2003 Server. To backup and restore i used the excellent utility POPFile 'User Data' Backup/Restore Utility for Windows 0.0.28 Build F, created 29 October 2009 .

Popfile process popfileb.exe starts under Administrator account, but I can't start it as a service.

I installed popfile on c:\popfile.
The user data are on C:\users\administrator.<domain>\AppData?\Roaming\POPFile .

I've used popfile-service.exe -install to install the service. The service logs with the same user I use on the other machine, a Windows 2003 server, because it is a domain account with the administrator privileges.

However when I try to start the service, Windows application log reported this error:
