Can't run programs from other users
I am not able to run some programs when logged in as
another user. Specifically the Palm desktop will not run. It tries to start, but when prompting for the new user name it gives the message unable to create account or create directory. Is this a problem with the user rights/permissions? Can programs be restricted from users? if so, how? |

It probably needs to be installed tot he system under that user account. = This is not unusual for software that is not "user aware". If the = account in question is a limited account, right-click the installer and = use "run as" to enter an admin level name and password. --=20 Best of Luck, Rick Rogers aka "Nutcase" MS-MVP - Win9x - = http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Associate Expert - WinXP - Expert Zone - = www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone Win98 Help - www.rickrogers.org "jgreg7" wrote in message = ...
