Cannot Execute Batch File

Hello,

We have newly installed a Terminal Server. Our users will log on to this
terminal server to use various applications. One of our application starts
with a Batch file, that is shared on a different Server. We have given every
user a shortcut in their profile.

Now when the users log on to the server, they are not able to access this
batch file. I have checked and all the rights and permissions are their.
Even I can access other files. But, I cannot access only batch files.

Kindly let me know if there is any solution.

Thanks in Advance.

Regards,
Denis Dudhia

What is the format of the shortcut? What are the permissions for the
shortcut?

Maybe you should assign a mapped network drive to the folder with the
batch file in it. Then create the shortcut...

Re: Cannot Execute Batch File

Thanks Hank for your valued reply.

I have given full permissions for the shortcut. Also, I have created the
shortcut only after mapping the network drive.

The error says that I do not have permissions to execute this file. At the
same time I cannot even open it in notepad. I am able to open other files in
the same folder with same permissions.

Thanks in Advance,

Regards,
Denis

Re: Cannot Execute Batch File

Sounds like IEES.
Check if this helps:

When users start a program, they get a "file download" dialog box,
or an error message: "Windows cannot access the specified device,
path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to
access the item."
