Hello,

Is there a way that I can allow our ordinary users to decompress zip files
using the built in windows function under terminal services? We used windows
2003 enterprise.

Thanks

Matt

I don't think regular users are *prevented* from doing this in a default
installation of Windows (TS isn't really relevant unless you've blocked this
via group policy or something). What happens when they try?

Thanks for that. I've tested it with a normal user and our normal gp and
it works fine. Which puzzles me as to why our former administrator
installed winzip!
