| | 'Program Files' permissions? I keep having trouble with installations and I'm wondering whether it's something to do with permissions of my 'Program Files' folder- I have listed current permissions for my 'Program Files' folder and wonder whether someone could confirm that they are correct? Creator Owner = Special Permissions System = Special Permissions Administrators = Special Permissions Users = Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read TrustedInstaller = List Folder Contents, Special Permissions |

| | Re: 'Program Files' permissions? Hi, Yep, that appears to be correct. When installing, you should be using elevated privileges to create the necessary folders in the Program Files directory. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org My thoughts http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com "JethroUK©" <reply@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:Gw0Di.41490$rr5.39423@xxxxxx-win.ntli.net...
