Are you running from a UAC protected folder? If so, does running as Admin help?

So, I had the same problem on two win 10 machines
Both running from C:\Portable\sSpeedtest
It seems that where you have to approve on first run (by typing "yes") -- there's actually two questions there. I dont know do you have to answer yes to both -- but on the first attempt (laptop) I missed the second question and closed the window. sSpeedtest is not working there, even when run as admin. Even if I delete the install and start again, I dont get that command window any more -- the info must be saved somewhere?
Now, on the other machine (desktop) I noticed the second question and answered (yes) -- this one works when run as admin.
Thanks for the programme :up:

Two questions? I only ever saw one, like this:

Do you recall what the second question was?

Correct, I had to do a bit of sleuthing to find it. You can find that here: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Ookla\Speedtest CLI\speedtest-cli.ini
--- Code: Text ---[Settings]LicenseAccepted=604ec27f828456331ebf441826292c49276bd3c1bee1a2f65a6452f505c4061c
I've only seen it contain that one entry. You can safely delete the file because sSpeedtest looks for that entry on every run. If it's not there, sSpeedtest should pop up the message box stating you need to accept the EULA on the popup, blah, blah. =]
Now, on the other machine (desktop) I noticed the second question and answered (yes) -- this one works when run as admin.
Thanks for the programme :up:-tomos (January 06, 2022, 07:37 AM)

You're welcome. I hope to get it working on both systems for you. =]

I reckon this second part is due to regulations here in the EU.
Note:
it will only work if you accept both (2 x "YES")
Now works when run as Admin on both machines -- thanks for your help skwire :up:

And I reckon you're right. I'll add some verbiage around that in the 1.0.3 updated coming here shortly. In the meantime, can you verify that there is only the one entry still in the speedtest-cli.ini file?

Yes, only one entry (as per your example above)
