Situation Requirement:
I logon to the domain with an account that does not have administrator permissions. When I run Hyena, I use the “run as†option and use my administrator username/password.
For the most part everything works great and it is a great tool to use, just one thing does not work for me.
When I ask hyena to view the properties of a domain user account, and proceed to the “profile†tab I see the location of the “Home Directoryâ€. When I click on “Explore†to see the contents of the Home Directory, the explorer window opens with permissions from my non administrator account instead of the administrator account.
After doing some investigation, here is what I have discovered.
- Problem does not exist within Windows 2000, but does in Windows XP. Have not tested Vista as we do not have this OS within our network.
I discovered that the process within task manager “explorer.exe†does not open a second process ( a second explorer.exe )when I click on explore within Hyena. So doing some initial research, it looks like Microsoft has stopped this due to Virus reasons.
Now when I google this problem, I have discovered multiple solutions however am still not able to get this resolved
Solution #1 found on the Internet-> When you open Windows Explorer, go to “tools -> folder options…â€. Go to the tab “view†tab and select “Launch Folder windows in Separate processâ€
I made this change on the PC for my non-administrator account and the administrator account with no success
Solution #2 found on the Internet-> At a DOS level, run the “runas.exe†on explorer.exe with my administrator account so that it creates a second explorer.exe
I did this and when I am in using Hyena, I click on explorer the Home directory, it defaults back to the explorer.exe process that is running with my non-administrator account
Solution #3 found on the Internet-> User iexplorer.exe instead of explorer.exe
I can not find in Hyena where I can configure it to use iexplorer.exe instead of explorer.exe.
Solution #4 found on the Internet-> When you execute explorer, run it as follows
“C:\windows\explorer.exe \\server\pfleury\ /separateâ€
Again, I can not find out where in Hyena to add “/separate†at the end of the explorer button function..
