You maybe have to give your User-Account full rights in the gw2cache(xx-xxxx-xxxx-xx) directory in your %temp% directory, since thats where the Awsonium Process for the TP runs.

EVERY MMO is awesome until it is released then its unfinished. A month after release it just sucks.
Best MMOs are the ones that never make it. Therefore Stargate Online wins.

that worked, thanks! seems odd though since the Administrators group had full rights and my user account is in that group….

The TP uses a separate executable, awesomium.exe. It spawns in the folder Beldin mentioned. Because it connects via https to ANet, it requires admin rights. In theory, if you run GW2.exe as an admin, the folder/exe should spawn with the proper permissions. Sometimes you have to delete that folder to make sure that happens.
