Guest KWME Posted November 2, 2007 Posted November 2, 2007 I was working on my server this afternoon trying to get a printer to work on Terminal Services. I must have changed something, and I can't remember what. When users log-on to the terminal server they get the following message when clicking on almost all of the icons on the desktop and start menu "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item." I've checked and rechecked the share permissions and can't find a problem. I rebuilt the mandatory profile. I've checked the group policy and can't find a problem. I'm at wits end. Please help
Guest KWME Posted November 2, 2007 Posted November 2, 2007 RE: HELP! My Icons Don't Work - File Permission Issue I also want to add that Internet Explorer works fine.

Guest KWME Posted November 2, 2007 Posted November 2, 2007 Re: HELP! My Icons Don't Work - File Permission Issue I checked out the link you posted - thanks. The problem is it didn't work. I'm still unable to reach any of the applications listed. No programs/exe files have been moved recently. It was working, then it wasn't. Could it have anything to do with profiles? mciad "Robert L.
