Hello Sathyaish,
This problem is application-specific.
For example a limited user only has read permissions on anything in
c:\Program Files\* unless its been explicitly given.
To give limited users the proper rights, it must be installed as an
Administator, and you should have your setup execute "cacls "c:\Program
Files\MyApplication" /e /t /p users:F"
For more informati0n, you can refer to the following link:

You should probably only assign the rights you need but the above command
should allow full access access to anyone within the "Users" group.
