GrimR is right. But I'm looking for how to change the settings AFTER the initial install. I've tried the tips here, but they did not work: http://support.adobe.com/devsup/devsup.nsf/docs/51722.htm http://support.adobe.com/devsup/devsup.nsf/docs/53556.htm Looks like it may be more than just a...

I need to create several new accounts as roaming profiles, using the old account as the source. Also, when you point the profile path to the old account, it doesn't generate its own folder on the server because its using the old profile. I even had the new account to have full control of the...

Hi. How can I make a batch file that will run keyboard shortcuts? For example, how would I code Ctrl + O? Or Ctrl + Alt + Del?

I created a new user account in AD and pointed its profile path to an older account. The problem is that when I log into the new account, it doesn’t pull down all of the settings of old account. For example, the old account has an red background. The new account will apply that setting. But...

Hi. In the Control Panel, when you click the Remove button for a program, is there a way to tell what command is being used to uninstall that program?

Are you both moderators for the vbscript forums? Sometimes Tektips goes down for some reason, I need to cross post to other forums. Anyway, thanks to both of you for the input. Here's the final code: Const ForReading = 1 Const ForWriting = 2 Set objFSO =...

Still getting the same information returned. Just curious, what does the UCase function have to do with the script? I didn't think case sensitivity was relevant since apples is all in lower case. It was suggested in another forum to put an Else clause into the If-Then block that will build a...
