Hello Mark,
It is common that users would experience difficulties as you describe in
your post. The reason is that there are still most likely some registry
entries specific to the user that have to be modified.
You can monitor file and registry access with the third-party FileMon and
RegMon tools.
These tools monitor and log all registry and file access...
For information about FileMon, refer to the following Web site:
http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/source/filemon.shtml
For information about RegMon, refer to the following Web site:
http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/source/regmon.shtml
Usage:
1) Start Filemon or Regmon
2) Go about reproducing the error
3) Click File then Save as
4) Open the log file
5) From the log file you should be able to identify the registry keys or
files attempted to be accessed. You can just search the log file for
"Access Denied", which will give you quick clues where you may have to make
changes to the permissions. You would have to give the users or a user
group explicit permissions on the registry key or file in question.
If you have the same problems with Filemon or Regmon, run it one time from
the admin account and then the user should be able to run the application
as well.
Hope this helps,
Cheers,
