Sharing Programs (Again)

Posted: 12-02-2003, 01:35 AM
I'm having a problem loading a program onto another users
profile. The installation program keeps telling me that
it does not have access to a file, yet the file folder is
shared and the file itself shows up under the user
account. It says to make sure there is sufficient disk
space (which there is - 60 GB) and that access is
denied. I've even pasted a copy of the file into the all
users profiles. Any ideas would be appreciated.

What are you talking about. Give details. Some unknown program is being installed in some unknown location. The answer is probably write access. But who could tell.

I had the same problem, if the user accounts you are
trying to grant access to are set up as "Limited" accounts
instead of "Administrator" accounts (Assuming XP Home
Edition) you will not be able to run programs from these
accounts. I was told by a Microsoft Support person that
any porogram that needs access to certain system resources
will not get to them if the account being used is
a "Limited" account. Try setting those accounts
to "Administrator" accounts and seeing if they will run.

Any program can be configured to run without making the user an administrator.
