Hello,
I have an application (Acrobat 8) running on my 2008 R2 Terminal Servers that runs, but randomly throws fatal errors. As part of my troubleshooting, since it's an older app, I wanted to try running it in XPSP3 compatibility mode for all users to see if that helps at all.
I can set acrobat.exe to run in XPSP3 mode and it will run logged in as an Administrator, but when I log in as one of my TS users, I get UAC-style prompts that require authentication to run the program.
Running Process Monitor and attempting to run as a TS user gives me only two access denied errors for the TS user, on these files:
- C:\Windows\Installer\<guid>\_SC_Distiller.exe
- C:\Windows\Installer\<guid>\_SC_Acrobat_Standard.exe
Before I give TS users access to those files, I wanted to see if there were any special permissions that should be set anywhere just as a result of using application compatibility mode on a terminal server. The TS users are currently just members of the Users and Remote Desktop Users groups.
Thanks in advance,
John
