SmartBoard Tools Issues

[hotwired007]

Having some problems with my Smartbaord tools and saving any settings for staff... according to the Smartboard Tools error log it saves all the settings in:

 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\SMART Technologies\...

 

i need to give staff write access to this key(s).... i have over 30 members of staff and want it change via GP... i can't figure out how to do it... any ideas?

 

thanks in advance

Is it many machines?

If not you could create a GP to enable the "Remote Registry" service, then with regedit connect to each machine and change the security of the key?

i found a solution:

 

Group Policy: Computer Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings > Security Settings > Registry

 

Right Click > Add Key > MACHINE\Software\SMART Technologies\

 

Edit Permissions > Add User Group > Set Permission to Full Control > Click OK.

 

Login as teacher and orient any smartboard.
