Admiral Q

Sounds as if you've redirected the All Users profile to a network share -
this should only be done for real users, leave the All Users and Default
Users profile on the local machine with no redirection, otherwise every Tom,
Dick and Harry with an account will require FULL access to it on the network
share.

Manual Edit:

Go to: Start/Run/Regedit

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell
Folders

Ensure that the Common Admistrative Tools entry is correct.

It should read:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Administrative Tools

I sent you at least 2 emails...one showing what the registry looks like and
secondly for an explanation of how to do what you said to do.

Did you get my "direct" reply to you? I tried both the automatic and manual
methods, and neither worked. also, i sent you a screen print of the registry.

Thank you.

Did the person say they wanted to receive emails?
