Importing Putty Sessions - no sessions listed

Importing Putty Sessions - no sessions listed

HI,

I am unable to import any Putty sessions from the 'Add Session" dialoge. I have set the Putty path in "Options -> Installation Path -> Putty". I have then configured each sessions within Putty and confirmed they are working. I then return to Remote Desktop Manager and attempt to "Add Session -> Telent, SSH, RAW" however in the "Session" drop down there are no sessions listed.

Am I missing a step?

Thanks in advance.

Figured it out. I was launching Remote Desktop Manager via 'Run As' which was causing the program to run in the context of the elevated security principle. Anyways this breaks Remote Desktop Manager/Putty because session information is stored on HKCU. The HKCU hive of the Secondary Logon user is not loaded hence no session information can be pulled.
