It does for me. I do that all the time, and I've never had the problem. > Your questions are invalid as in windows a user with admin privileges > will have access to all folders. That is simply false. There are several ways for a user with admin privileges not to have access to a local folder on Windows. Read up on NTFS ACLs and you'll find it. There are also several cases where Windows will report access denied for errors that *are not related to permissions*. > You guys should do a better job of creating a user friendly installation > package We're trying. That's why I asked you those questions. Without feedback, we can't make it better, because it works fine in all "normal" situations for thousands of other people. We want to know *why* it didn't work in your case, so we can fix it or at least document it. //Magnus ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
