adding new user account error

[Steve]

Hi
When I add a new user account I get the follwing error when I open that
account. It does not happen on my account. Any ideas please?

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just in time (JIT) debugging, the config file for this
application or machine (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the machine
rather than being handled by this dialog.

Hello Steve,

What version of Microsoft Windows Vista do you run?

Seems to me that the user you use to create accounts don't have the right
permission.
It wants to write to the registry and gets access deny.

Use RegMon
(http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/utilities/regmon.mspx) to
check what registry value you get access deny in and change permission ont
aht registry key and you shouldn't get the same error and hopefully no other
erros.

Thank you
John Bryntze
