The best way to fix this is to update to a Vista compatible version of the application. If that is not possible then you have to figure out what registry keys and files the program is using and change their permissions so that standard users have access to these locations. This program will help to figure out what locations are being accessed. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-ca/s.../bb896645.aspx This is a complicated process with a lot of trial and error involved. -- Kerry Brown Microsoft MVP - Shell/User http://www.vistahelp.ca/phpBB2/ |
