Hi,

I have hundreds of pieces of software I have tweaked to run under a
read-only machine. My users have no write access except to their
HomeDrive on the server.

I use inctrl5 to find out what reg keys and what specific files need
access and then I give write access to only those keys and files.
Works fine so far. Even got AutoCad 2004 full version to run under a
read-only account and they said that I couldn’t do it.
