Re: Application INI not moving to Users Home Directory

Never mind I fixed it. Uninstalling KB917422 fixed the problem. Everything
is back to normal now. (Lets get some work done.)

Thanks for the help,

Shelby

I have tried the workaround suggested and it did not fix the problem for us.
Any other ideas of how we might troublehoot this to figure out that the
problem might be?

Again, thank you very much for you time and efforts.

It's caused by the way MS06-051 fixes the

We have an application called FSP, that has been working fine on
our Terminal server. We installed the latest round of windows
security patches and fixes, did a reboot and now we are having
problems with it. (Odd thing is it is just this one app,
everything else seems to work fine.)

What is happing is the application uses an INI file to keep
track of your setting and such. Well it keeps overwriting the
same INI file now in the \WINNT dir of the terminal server, not
the home dir of the indivdual users. Users see the settings of
the person that last logged in, not there own.

Any ideas what would break the INI mapping for just one
application. Like I said the others seem to work just fine,
INI's are created as expected.

Thanks,

Shelby
