perfection Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 I have installed the trial version of a program to try out. This has been installed on a stanbdalone computer for safety reasons. I have administrative rights (their are several other users with limited rights). I want another user (with limited user rights) to use this program. The program is in his program list but when accessed it gives an error about missing MDAC 2.1 etc which is not possibly because this set of files is definitely there in the common files folder. Further this program works perfectly when i log in to my account with administratiove rights. What i did next was give that user admin rights temporarily and he was able to access the program without any error messages. But i cannot give this person admin rights without compromising the security of this standalone PC. How can i solve this problem - i.e. give him limited user rights which he is entitled to as well as permit him to use the program withour error messages? Essentially he is gettinmg sccess to the programs but not to the MDAC librray files required to run this programWinXP SP2, NTFSPS - Is there any program i can buy that simplifies the work of an administrator rather than the administrative tools in control panel regarding security policies, permissions etc?? Thank you
war59312 Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 See if there are any errors in event viewer first off.Also you can try making him/her a power use.Or just play around with Local Security Policy.Oh and you did set up permissions on the files/folders you want the user to be able to use right?See:http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?...;308421&sd=tech
