TXTEXP not working in Windows 8

Txtexp (text explode) express tool works without any issues on my old windows 7 machine.  On my new windows 8 machine the txtexp command only mirrors the text.  I have both 2014 and 2015 AutoCAD on both machines and the effect is the same regardless of version.

 

As I was typing this a thought occurred to me and it turned out to be the solution, so I will share it for the benefit of others.  AutoCAD needs to be run as an administrator in order for this command to work.  I would imagine that this has to do with the command using the wmfout and wmfin commands to extract the text.

 

Hope this helps,

Are you using Win 8, not Win 8.1? If yes, it should be bug. Could you upgrade you system to Win8.1?  There is no any issue with command TXTEXP.
