[THIN] Re: regedit /s won't run despite GPO setting

Hi Steve,

 

It runs as expected for me. Are you sure the “access denied” error isn’t because the user account does not have execute rights for the .reg file?

 

Cheers,

Jeremy.

Subject: [THIN] regedit /s won't run despite GPO setting

 

w2k3 r2 servers with sp/2

Despite the GPO setting of prevent access to registry tools but allow regedit to run silently (gpo confirmed by checking user's registy hive - disableregistrytools is set to 1) regedit /s still won't run; access is denied.

M$ KB 831787 covers it with a hotfix for SP1, sp2 is supposed to be fixed.

anyone run into this and/or have a workaround?
