How To: Set permissions
on Windows 7
Microsoft's latest release, Windows 7, is
very picky about permissions. If you are having
difficulty using Email
Marketing Director with the new Windows 7
system, here are a couple of things to try.
After
installing Windows 7, log into your computer
as the Administrator user, and there should be
no
problems
running Email Marketing Director. If it is necessary
to log in as a different user, you may need
to
set the permissions for that user in order to
run the program.
To do that, navigate to the Email Marketing
Director program folder. In a typical installation
it is located at C:\Program Files\EmailMarketingDirector.
Find the emailmarketingdirector.exe file. Right
mouse click the file and open the Properties
menu.
Go to the security tab. Click the "Edit" button.
Highlight the Groups or User name and check the
"Full Control - Allow" checkbox to allow full
access
for the selected groups or users.
Repeat the same procedure for the Email Marketing
Direct program folder itself too, and that should
take care of any permissions issues that come
up.
