When I access control panel in W2K, I get error message on most (not all)
applets that I attempt to open. Error message reads: "Access to specified
device, path, or file is denied."
Have searched newsgroups and tried various fixed but none seem to work. User
has admin priviledges, single, non-networked computer. Virus, worm checks
show nothing.
Listed Control panel applets. Those able to asccess are noted. Applets with
different error mess age(s) noted. Applets with error message, "Access to
specified device, path, or file is denied." are simply listed as applet name
only.
