Good Evening,

I'm having a slight problem with my WinXP machine. I usually log on to my machine under my own user name, which is part of the 'Administrators' group. I also have an administrator username, which is of course installed by default.

I installed Morpheus a few days ago under my own username, and now when I try to logon under Administrator and try to access morpheus.exe in the folder, it says access denied. I'm pretty sure there are other installed programs on this machine that also has the same problem, but I'm not positive.

Can anyone please help me fix the permissions if this is at all possible, or perhaps tell me the 'proper' way to install programs? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

This is a question that I would love to have answerd as well. I'm not having any problem that require an answer but I am curious. In windows 2000 this was a simple process but I can't seem to find it in XP (haven't looked REAL hard but its not done in the traditional manner for sure). There has to be a way in XP pro to change permissions for a user account that is already set up with the default settings.

Stab in the dark:
Control Panel > Folder Options > View tab > uncheck "Use simple file sharing"
Then, go to the Morpheus folder program, right-click, and see if you what the security tab has to offer.
