Unable to run program under windows 2000

by amendes . Updated 25 years, 5 months ago

I am not sure if this should be classified as a group policy or not.
Before I start, we are running windows 2000 and we have all the up to date patches installed.
Here is my problem.
When trying to run a specific program nothing happens. We don’t get any error messages or any indicators that the program is trying to run (not even in the task manager). While trying to solve this problem I have found the following out.
I can log on as user1 (for example) and try to run the program. Nothinghappens. While I am still logged on as user1, I can get it to run by using the run as command.
I have more that just user1 that is having the same problem. They range from adminstrators to somewhat restricted users.
Just when I think that it is limited to profiles. I have a machine that will not work for any profile, but once again with this one the run as command works.
I would appreciate any help that can be provided.
Thanks!!
