Problems with Fireworks permissions.

[tosca925]

I have the following error when the kids use Firefox. Error

 

The suite wa part of a RIS image, all of the Macromedia suite was launched individually to avoid this problem happening. But it has and we can't understand why. I know the error is self explanitory but i wondered if any one knew of a possible fix for this by a reg script through GPO or similar.

 

One thing is the kids have a mandatory profile, my last option was to log on with that profile run the software and then save any changes before i turn it back to mandatory.

 

Ideas?

What about using regmon to see where its trying to write to.

I hope you have this sorted by now, but just in case, the problem seems to be caused by the key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App

Paths\Fireworks.exe

 

The installer sets the value to :

C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Fireworks 8\

but Fireworks wants the value to be

C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Fireworks 8

 

I modified my transform to use an absolute path, rather than the directory property, as it was always going to be a silent per machine installation to the same location.

I'll have a look at this tomorrow.

I checked one of our machines today and the registryis as you said above. I have exported a reg key and will run it in GPO script to a room of machines and see what happens.
