Do users have access to the C:\Windows folder?...or at least to whatever location you're copying to? Shane M.

I do know that the script works because as a Domain admin it copies the file over fine. It's only the users.

The machine will process the script policy but won't actually execute the script unless you reboot.

If you've already deployed the Group Policy Preference extensions, you can also use that to copy files.

All users have domain users rights. (no access to anything) I need a file copied over to c:\windows. I have added a start up script to the computer configurations but when I do a gpresult it does not apply. I have force a replication but it still does not seem to work.
