Re: Why Users dont have write rights to the %windir%\TEMP folder

I have come across one or two applications like that.
Sometimes you can pre-create the file in that folder, then give the users Modify rights to that file only,

Hello,

everything is in the title ;-)

Why users don't have the write access to the c:\windows\temp folder (when Power Users have this access).

Is there a security reason for that ?

I will appreciate to have technical information about that as we have an application that needs to let "Users" to have write access on this folder and I will like to see if it is acceptable in terms of security.

Thank you
