RE: Word 2007 cannot save due to file permission error
Interesting-I've been seeing something similar to this once in a while, running Vista Ent with Office 2007sp1. I think it may have started after we migrated our home directories to DFS paths, and have not had much chance to look into it yet. For me, it doesn't always happen, just pops up periodically-is that what you're seeing (intermittent) or does it always happen? I've confirmed it's not permissions and not quota-related-hadn't tried the run as admin yet. -Bonnie From: Benjamin Zachary - Lists [mailto:li...@levelfive.us] Sent: Saturday, December 13, 2008 5:56 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Word 2007 cannot save due to file permission error Getting this on an xpsp3 pc w/ office 2007sp1.

RE: Word 2007 cannot save due to file permission error
I've seen this on a few users, sporadically, on O2k3. Unfortunately, even Save As... wasn't resolving the issue when it would occur. Sean Rector, MCSE From: Miller Bonnie L.

RE: Word 2007 cannot save due to file permission error
I didn't see the original posting. However, when one of my users had this, it was because their user profile was corrupt. That was not fun! If you're lucky, the NTUSER.DAT file can be over-written with a known good copy. If you're not lucky, then the NTUSER.DAT file for .DEFAULT could also be corrupt. -- Richard McClary, Systems Administrator ASPCA Knowledge Management 1717 S Philo Rd, Ste 36, Urbana, IL 61802 217-337-9761 http://www.aspca.org Miller Bonnie L. mille...@mukilteo.wednet.edu wrote on 12/15/2008 09:07:29 AM: Interesting—I’ve been seeing something similar to this once in a while, running Vista Ent with Office 2007sp1.

RE: Word 2007 cannot save due to file permission error
Interesting--There are other drives connected via logon scripts on different letters, but these (home directories) are connected via the properties of the user accounts. There is also folder redirection going on, so that may be involved. -Original Message- From: Terry Dickson [mailto:te...@treasurer.state.ks.us] Sent: Monday, December 15, 2008 7:48 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Word 2007 cannot save due to file permission error When we first switched to DFS we had a couple of issues with that.
