What are the default/recommendet access rights for %ALLUSERSPROFILE%?
- by RED SOFT ADAIR-StefanWoe
We have a Windows application that reads and writes some data for all users. We place it at
%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\OurProgram*.*
We now encounter a few cases in larger companies, where users do not have write permission to %ALLUSERSPROFILE%. Most of these cases are running Windows 7. The problem does not occur on a normal desktop installation of Windows 7 though.
What is the recommended policy for this location?
I have not found any "official" information about this.
Is there a different location where all users have write permission?
