I'm trying to install software so my son (as a limited user
in WinXP Home) can play on his account. It doesn't work
under limited account privileges. I went to the software
website where they have FAQ's related to my problem. They
suggest I log on as administrator and give the specific
user account Full Control of the directory containing the
program he wishes to run. They also have a link to a
microsoft article to explain how to do this:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/security/learnmore/accesscontrol.mspx
The link explains how to do this using WinXP Professional
edition. I can't seem to find out how to grant permissions
using WinXP Home edition. Anyone have suggestions? Thanks
in advance
Since you're running Windows XP Home Edition, you
must start the computer in Safe Mode, and then log on with
an account that has Administrative rights to have access to
the Security tab. To start in Safe Mode, reboot your
computer and start tapping the F8 key as soon as you see
anything displayed on the screen. Keep hitting F8 until the
Advanced Startup Options menu appears. Use the up and down
arrow keys on your keyboard to select Safe Mode. Hit Enter.
Good luck
