What locations on the drive C can write non-Admin users?

I am writing an applicaton that I would save temporary data on the C drive.  The request may or may not be run as an administrator, and I would like to know if there is a particular place that non-admin users can write in Windows 7 or Windows XP.  Any help on this?  A link would be most appreciated.

Thank you

Mike

I was hoping that kind of something like user data or Application data.  The application folder was created at installation.  What is the standard for the development of the app?

The standard in Windows 7 is "C:\ProgramData".

  • I can see the drive, but can't open the DVD RW drive, nor can I copy them to it.

    by clicking on the drive does nothing. It does not open. I can't send pictures on the disc to be copied, nor can I copy photos on the disk. I stopped and restarted. I have antivirus protection that says that it is up-to-date.

    I went to the control panel and clicked on the device and it says it's working properly, but this clearly isn't.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables at both ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the system manufacturer and the manufacturer of the device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

    ===============================

    Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (burn CD & DVD and CD and DVD read). Therefore, it is not unusual for 1 or 2 rooms with not so work that others do it properly.

    Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are some entries in the registry that the troubleshooter does not solve, and those who "could" be the cause.

    Check with your system manufacturer Maker and device for possible firmware updates and the correct registry entries for your car.

    These are the keys in my opinion, are those in question - secondary-keys for the CD/DVD drive of course because there will be other subkeys in these keys. Be sure to ask specific keys involved as well as the parameters.

But re - install is the problem here, first I downloaded the race online, saved, driver (PS_410_C309a_Net_enu_140_047) & files were extracted.

  • What happens at the same time integrate codes if a user leaves their company and their CC license is cancelled?

    I run a small (two people) web company that uses CC. We are about to add an employee, so I turn to a business account and their setting up of a seat CC. From time to time this employee will develop Web sites that use Typekit fonts.

    If/when this employee left the company and its headquarters is cancelled, what happens to the embed code/TypeKit ID? It stay active to society or just disappear (screwing up policies of the sites that use them)?

    If the codes will go away, is there a simple way to keep track of which incorporate codes are used so that they can be implemented by someone else in the company?

    Thank you.

    Hi Jason,

    Thank you for your interest in Typekit. There will be no interruption to the police which serves for your websites if creative cloud of employee subscription ends. Remove a user from your Creative team subscription has no cloud automatically remove web fonts from Typekit kits; you would need to connect to the Typekit website and chose to delete the fonts as well.

    Typekit Support will be able to help you transfer these kits to another employee who has creative cloud or, if this isn't an option for some reason, convert the account Typekit a standalone subscription. (The stand-alone Typekit plan would be charged separately creative cloud; current subscription rates are available on our Web site: https://typekit.com/plans.)

    In both cases, write to us at [email protected] for more information when (if) you need to make these changes.  You can also feel free to contact us at this email with any other questions on the use of Typekit.

  • How can a non administrator user to do certain privileged tasks

    BS "D."

    Hello
    I have a question to administration of Windows 7. (I have some experience UNIX admin, but am a novice to Windows).
    I want to allow a non administrator user to do 2 of the following tasks:
    1. Installation/update software. Example: upgrade Adobe Acrobat Reader.
    2. Start/stop services. Example: MySQL is configured to be a service that is started manually. The user must be able to start and stop it at will.
    I am running Windows 7 Home Premium. I consider the upgrade to Pro if that would help.
    Thanks in advance!
    -Avigdor

    In Windows 7, you cannot grant special privileges to ordinary accounts. This applies to all flavors of Windows 7.

    1. Installation/update software. Example: upgrade Adobe Acrobat Reader.
      AFAIR ordinary users are allowed to give the go-ahead for the Acrobat upgrades.
    2. Start/stop services. Example: MySQL is configured to be a service that is started manually. The user must be able to start and stop it at will.
      You will need to do so indirectly via a scheduled task. The task runs under the system account. It start or stop a service using a semaphore file that is created by the user verification.
  • Non-admin user with rights of workflow can not see "Templates" tab "workflow Admin".

    I have a problem with how to explain why users admin on my installation of WCC have the tab 'Templates '.

    while others are not:

    I believe that granting "Rights.Apps.Workflow" does not provide users non-admin with access to the tab 'Templates '. However, I could be wrong and wonder to the community...

    Jon

    Hi Jon,

    The behavior I see is that the model tab is available for a person with the Admin role and not a person that has access to the application through "Rights.Apps.Workflow". The "Rights.App.Workflow" allows users to have access to the cmdlet workflow without the model tab.

    I think that this old notebook to old IDE connector so please be sure of the former is back with a new.
    80 GB capacity will be OK.

    Best thing you can do is remove the old HDD and check if the HARD disk is connected directly or with the small adapter. M30 is old model laptop and I do not exactly remember what it looks like but, in general, I sure you can use this disc HARD m.

    In the worst cases send it back.

  • What type of HARD drive I can use Satellite M70-337?

    Is this compatible with the laptop HARD drive toshiba, if not, what is the specification for the necessary HARD disk?

    Thanks for any help!
    Károly

    Hello

    I think what you need is a HARD drive with the SATA interface. I think that the 40 GB of HARD drive that was installed in your laptop supports a 5400 RPM.

    To my knowledge the external USB case supports an IDE hard drives. But you know, it is possible to s that your external HARD drive supports a SATA interface. In any case, you must check it before using this laptop computer HARD drive.

    In addition, there is a problem with the size of the HARD drive. It is a 120 GB HARD drive and, possibly, the BIOS does not recognize the HARD drive. I think you can use 40 GB, 60 GB, 80 GB and 100 GB hard drives but I'm not sure about the 120 GB.

    But you can test it.
