MSAS Problem New User Setup.

[Ben]

When ever i click the MSAS icon in the sys tray it loads
up the new user setup wizard every time i click it.

I have tried re installing but nothing seems to fix it.

And this means taht MSAS isnt running in the sys tray
which means it isnt protecting my computer.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Please try my fix here. I also got the error on my

system, and this cleared it up, even the numerous times
when I tried to break it during testing:

I believe that I've seen this fix by uninstalling, blowing away the
installation folder (and files) which are left behind, and then
reinstalling.

I'd be interested to hear whether the error 101 fix from your other
respondent does the job for you. If it does, we have a different error 101
fix which might be easier or preferable.

Here it is:
or Windows XP Professional:
To change the setting on Windows XP Professional, open "Local Security
Policy" in Administrative Tools, or run secpol.msc. You need to be an admin
to use this tool. In the left pane, browse to Security Settings \ Local
Policies \ Security Options. The policy name is "System objects: Default
owner for objects created by members of the Administrators group". The
allowable settings are "Administrators group" or "Object creator". Change it
to "Administrators group." After that change has been made, please refresh
the policy by typing: "gpupdate /force" from a command prompt.

For Windows XP Home Edition:

The "Local Security Policy" snap-in is not available on Windows XP Home

you do not feel comfortable doing this, do not try this workaround.

In Regedit, navigate to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa. Find the value
called "nodefaultadminowner". The supported values are "0" for
"Administrators group", or "1" for "Object creator". Set the value to 0.

Please provide feedback if this is working.

ugh--I'd forgotten it was that one--not so easy--but it shouldn't have to be
repeated--it ought to do the job once and for all.
