Re: Applications only showing up for one admin



Check the permissions for the folder to see if administrators has full
control or not. Also if the user is a member of a group that has deny
permissions to the folder/file then the user may not be able to access or
run the program even if the user is administrator. See the link below on how
to check and manage folder NTFS permissions while logged on as an
administrator. Offhand I am not familiar with XP MCE but see if any of it
helps. XP Home for instance requires that you boot into Safe Mode as an
administrator in order to see the security tab on a folder's properties
while XP Pro requires that you disable simple file sharing.. --- Steve
