Hi
From a previous post of mine:
<quote>
One way is to use Sysinternals RegMon/FileMon utilities to find what registry
keys/file system folders the application need write access to and set rights
accordingly for the locked down user account ( http://www.sysinternals.com )
</quote>
Here is another one:
I haven't run the utility in the link below myself, but it looks
interesting as a problem solving tool in some situations, e.g. like
the one you have:
Windows Application Verifier has settings that will
tell you what files/reg keys/etc. the app accesses.
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/appcompatibility/appverifier.mspx
The AppVerifier works by monitoring an application's use of the
operating system, including the file system, registry, memory, and
APIs, while the application is being run.
