Allow non administrators to decompress zip files

[Guest legpeg2008]

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

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!
