xp - user account
I am new to XP. I have xp home version. I am set up as
administrator and my son is setup with limited access. I install games under my user account. When he uses his user account, he can not run the game. Is there a way to fix this? TIA |

xp - user account
Fixing this depends on the software that is not=20
installing correctly. Some can be fixed by granting Users modify on the=20 directory where the software is installed. Some require further efforts. The most simple way to grant this permission is in=20 a safe mode (F8) boot. R-click on the folder where=20 the application is installed, and select Properties. Then use the Security tab to check Modify for the=20 Users groups. --=20 Roger=20 "linda" wrote in message = ... I am new to XP. I have xp home version.
