Hello TBUDL, after giving the users on this computer user-only permissions and re-installing the Office XP suite again the default E-Mail client was Outlook (forgot to disable that component).
Now TB asks with every program start if it should be set as the user's default email program and I always say Yes, but it keeps asking. So I pulled Regmon out and it gives ACCDENIED for this: 1.87635440 thebat.exe:3736 CreateKey HKLM\Software\Clients\Mail ACCDENIED Access: 0xF003F BASE\dAniel 1.87647201 thebat.exe:3736 CreateKey HKLM\Software\Clients\Mail ACCDENIED Access: 0xF003F BASE\dAniel 2.02317920 thebat.exe:3736 CreateKey HKCR\.msg ACCDENIED Access: 0xF003F BASE\dAniel 2.02327391 thebat.exe:3736 CreateKey HKCR\.msg ACCDENIED Access: 0xF003F BASE\dAniel 2.02360719 thebat.exe:3736 CreateKey HKCR\.eml ACCDENIED Access: 0xF003F BASE\dAniel 2.02367759 thebat.exe:3736 CreateKey HKCR\.eml ACCDENIED Access: 0xF003F BASE\dAniel [here comes the dialog asking for set-as-default] 2.12346346 thebat.exe:3736 CreateKey HKCR\mailto\shell\open\DDEexec ACCDENIED Access: 0xF003F BASE\dAniel 2.12359448 thebat.exe:3736 CreateKey HKCR\mailto\shell\open\DDEexec ACCDENIED Access: 0xF003F BASE\dAniel 2.12381741 thebat.exe:3736 CreateKey HKCR\mailto\shell\open\DDEexec ACCDENIED Access: 0x2000000 BASE\dAniel 2.12403113 thebat.exe:3736 CreateKey HKCR\mailto\shell\open\DDEexec ACCDENIED Access: 0x2000000 BASE\dAniel 2.12412360 thebat.exe:3736 CreateKey HKLM\Software\Clients\Mail ACCDENIED Access: 0xF003F BASE\dAniel 2.12422026 thebat.exe:3736 CreateKey HKLM\Software\Clients\Mail ACCDENIED Access: 0xF003F BASE\dAniel Pity. I could give permissions for those keys, but they are system-wide anyway and not user-related, AFAICS. I changed the default E-Mail application to The Bat in the properties of the start menu ("show in start menu"), but that does not seem to matter. Suggestions? Already bugtracked? -- shinE!
