    I've run into that issue before depending on the type of machine. If you don't have admin and the admin installs it using his credentials Workbench will then reference their user profile (on the computer) when you browse for files and such. You should still be able to get to your folders I believe but would have to go navigate back up to C:/Users and go to yours. I'd ask your IT person if theirs a way because it's less of a Workbench issue than it is an installation in general as I've also had this happen to other programs.

     

    You should be able to run/use Domo without Admin as long as your windows (assuming you're windows) user is added to the "Domo Workbench Users" group in security settings.

    @guitarhero23 can you elaborate on your response.

    are you saying you created a local admin group called Domo Workbench Users in active directory and assigned the user to this group.
