Company: | Cisco Systems |
Product: | Cisco Network Assistant 5.5 and earlier |
Category: | Network Support |
Problems: | When launching Cisco Network Assistant as a non-administrator:
Read/Write Access Error
Note: Read/write access is required for user home directory and installation directory: [path to user's profile] C:\Program Files\Cisco Systems\Cisco Network Assistant
Application apparently tries creating a randomly named file in its installation folder to test this access. |
Workarounds: | As a local Administrator, grant Modify access to the BUILTIN\Users local group for the installation folder. Example command line:
cacls "%programfiles%\Cisco Systems\Cisco Network Assistant" /e /t /g Users:c
The application will then work for non-administrators.
WARNING: This will expose your Cisco Network Assistant installation to abuse by Windows non-administrators. |
