Hi Support / @all,
I have build an emergency Windows 10.0.14393(1607)-64 with WinBuilder from TheOven.org. Project-Page: http://heise.de/-3467556
That EmyWin is a 'Windows Preinstallation Environment' WinPE, pimped with usefully tools.

Now I wont to include the TeamViewer, but it wouldn't run :-(
First I try the portable version, what is good for many tools in WinPE, it fails.
At last I try the setup EXE with the 'noinstallation' option from GUI and it fails too with the following LOG (extract row 092...104):

Q: Is there a way to run TeamViewer >=12.0.72365 in WinPE with 'system account' only?

Btw. **Third Party Product**-2.6.0 works

THX & Happy New Year

    I do not use WinPE, therefore i can't tell you if or how it would work, but your LOG gives some hints.
    It looks like WinPE is running under the local system account with no user account. This produces the error 1008 on line two. TeamViewer tries to switch from system account to a user account but there is none.
    I don't know why TeamViewer refuses to run under system account, but the solution would be to create a user account in WinPE, which i don't know if it is possible or to force TeamViewer to run under system account, where i also don't know if it is possible at least without TeamViewer devs.

    Hi elbea64,
    thanks for reply.
    Yes, it's a fact, in WinPE exist only a SystemAccount 'Default' that run's with highest privileges. It is not planned to create a different account at runtime or before at build.

    Is it possible to forward the question to technical support?
    At time I do not know how?

    thx
