Application based on Visual C++ distribution CefSharp browser launched only with admin security group


Application based on Visual C++ distribution CefSharp browser launched only with admin security group. otherwise we get the following error: "System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'CefSharp.Core.dll' or one of its dependencies. Access is denied. File name: 'CefSharp.Core.dll'
important VC++ distribution is installed. User of admin security group can launch application and CefSharp browser successfully. Any idea how to troubleshoot this issue ?

OS - Window Server 2016


Solution

  • Ok,issue resolved.We ask Citrix server admin to install Chrome browser and than it turns out that Chrome is not launching by user that is not in admin group. file c:\windows\system32\dbghelp.dll was missing permissions. A policy was modifying permissions on that file. once permission granted CefSharp browser launched with out admin privileges.
