Pegasus, is your first language English ?
*** No
or are you playing with me
*** No
as you do not seem to understand my english.

This is a home pc, user is an administrator account, all work fine. I
wanted to stop kids installing software so looked at making them a
restricted user but then I hit these problems.

I think Ill goto MSDN just thought this would be a good place to start,
having this problem posted here incase anyone else gets the problem and
someone posts solution.

Thanks

Check the Event Logger for relevant messages (eventvwr.exe).

Temporarily promote the new account to be a member of the Administrators
group, then try again. If it works then the problem is caused by
incorrect permissions.

its not an OE problem.

OE doesn't start, you click it and nothing, egg timer for a second and
nothing, no splash screen no window, no error message. Checked processes
and no msimn.exe running.

I would ask how can it be an OE issue when the logged on account looks
different and OE will not run when I switch an administrator account to
restricted. Switch it back to administrator, you know configuring the
OS, it works as normal.

Thank you for your contribution.

p.s yes viruses scanned for, malware, trojan, spyware scans done also

Hi

I put my kids logon account on restricted, from administrator, and
when I click their name and login the desktop is not quite the same
( icons not layed out the way they have it but all nice and in lines,
theirs are splattered all over the place ) and cannot start outlook
express. Switch them back to administrator and click their name, icons
all over the place and can start outlook.

Its as if it is a different account when in restricted mode.

Any Ideas ?

Cheers

Since we cannot see your screen you need to tell us what exactly
happens when you double-click OE. Furthermore, an OE newsgroup might be
a much better place to post your question.
