cannot runprogram as user

Setting up Xp system for a friend using ntfs file system with multiple users.
First big snag: she wants to use Foxmail as her email program. I install it as administrator, works ok there, but, will not start when running as user.

 

XP-home or XP-pro?

 

Xp pro. Temporary workaround was to make user a power user.

 

Pro - good.

You can try moving her back to a normal user and setting permissions on the folder containing the app so she has more premissions there. That will work unless there are .dll files or similar that are located elsewhere that also need her to have a higher level of access and XP has been pretty good about reverting to DOS days in that it pretty much forces 3rd party stuff to stay in a single folder. Usually.
