I think I am an adminstrator by default. It doesn't matter a lot to me, but
my main system "save" saves 2 files and I make one of them hidden so as not
to clutter up the desktop. Once diagnosed easily patched.
I note 2 weeks after buying Windows XP that it is so bug-ridden that I have
got to download a 28Mb patch to put it all right. NOT impressed. Maybe when
I have spent the necessary 2 hours on the phone this will work properly.

...and Traps 1-16.
It seems that
for traceable exceptions (trap #1 - #16, trapv, div0, chk)
- trace is switched off after the instruction following the
exception-generating instruction (1)
- trace is switched back on after the instruction following RTE (1)
for non-traceable instructions (bus, address, privilege, illegal, A & F
emulators)
- trace is switched off after the exception-generating instruction (2)
- trace is switched back on after the instruction following RTE (same as
above) (1)
(1) incorrect in Steem 2.4
(2) correct in Steem 2.4
Best wishes
