Cannot load custom component unless running Talend as windows administrator

Talend Open Studio 7.2 will not recognize custom component directory unless Talend is running in Administrator mode, which I don't want to do. I can place the custom component into the directory <Talend Studio installation dir>\plugins\org.talend.designer.components.localprovider_x.x.x.rxxxxx\components\ with standard components and Talend loads it fine. Or I can run Talend as Windows Administrator, assign the customer directory and again the component loads fine.

Talend does not give any errors when trying to read the custom directory from a standard user account. The parts just don't load.

The customer directory is right off the root directory of one of my drives. I assume there may be a security setting I need to adjust in Talend. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

@not specified not specified , which operating system are you using? We need to make some investigation and testing.
