It's related to removing one of the components. Try to add a new user and set user rights, that will open your eyes. Crappy indeed...

zakarias Posted April 20, 2007 Author Share Posted April 20, 2007 somehow, it's a bit relaxing to find out this wasn't my faul!now then... do you know what component should I keep in order to avoid this? and also... is there any other "bug" i should be worried about? I'm so happy with my extra 6 gigz... i hope i don't have to install the full package :SThanks for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redxii Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=96544Windows MailUsing "net user" command or netplwiz you can correctly create and manage user accounts even when it is broken. You also have to use cacls to set permissions and icacls to set the owner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
