Hi, I installed Lyx 1.5.5 (using the alternative windows installer) on a 64-bit Vista machine. The first time I launched it I noticed that Lyx was not coming up and this command shell indicating that inittexmf.exe was running would pop-up every couple of minutes. I let this continue for about 30 min. and then killed latex manually at which point Lyx then launched. However, I noticed that none of the document types were available. After looking into this further, I figured out that MikeTex did not have write permission to refresh it database. So I gave full control to user on which Lyx and Miketex were installed, refreshed the dB and launched Lyx. It seemed to work fine. However, I notice that whenever I reconfigure Lyx or do an export, the cmd dialog for initexmf.exe keeps popping up. Everything seems to be working fine, but I am just wondering why this is occuring since I have not noticed this before on previous versions of Lyx. Thanks.
