Re: Cannot Execute Batch File

Sounds like IEES.
Check if this helps:

When users start a program, they get a "file download" dialog box,
or an error message: "Windows cannot access the specified device,
path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to
access the item."

Thanks Hank for your valued reply.

I have given full permissions for the shortcut. Also, I have
created the shortcut only after mapping the network drive.

The error says that I do not have permissions to execute this
file. At the same time I cannot even open it in notepad. I am
able to open other files in the same folder with same
permissions.

Thanks in Advance,

Regards,
Denis

Hello,

We have newly installed a Terminal Server. Our users will
log on to this terminal server to use various applications.
One of our application starts with a Batch file, that is
shared on a different Server. We have given every user a
shortcut in their profile.

Now when the users log on to the server, they are not able to
access this batch file. I have checked and all the rights
and permissions are their. Even I can access other files.
But, I cannot access only batch files.

Kindly let me know if there is any solution.

Thanks in Advance.

What is the format of the shortcut? What are the permissions
for the shortcut?

Maybe you should assign a mapped network drive to the folder
with the batch file in it. Then create the shortcut...
