MeetingMaker 7.5 requires Power User access?

[Brad Barry]

Hello.

My workgroup uses MM 7.5 (and will migrate to some other vendor rather than upgrade to any offering from PeopleCube).

There is something that is a bit irksome.

It appears that users must have "Power User" or Administrator accounts to use the MM 7.5 client. Does anyone know of a way to work around this allowing normal "limited" user accounts to run the client? For instance, is there a particular registry key which can have its permissions changed to make this possible?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Brad,

MeetingMaker doesn't require that the user run at any level higher
than normal "Restricted User". But it does require that the user have
read/write access to the directory (and subdirectories) where the
MeetingMaker program resides.

In my environment, I create a local group on the workstation "MMU"
and then add the users to this group. Then I grant the MMU local
group permission to read/write files in the MeetingMaker directory
(this folder, subfolder, and files) in the Program Files area.

MeetingMaker creates files in the Program
Files\meetingmaker\MMCLNT32\ folder for each user, and also updates a
few files in the Program Files\meetingmaker\ folder.

Cheers!
