Rick,
Thanks for your input.
I have created a direct shortcut to winproj.exe works for me as the
admin, but my user received the following error messages:
-MS Project failed to launch in safe mode. Would you like to start
"Detect and Repair"(Y/N)?
-Microsoft Office cannot run Detect and repair on a terminal server, OK.
The event viewer recorded the following two event ID's
-MS Project failed to launch in safe mode. would you like to start
"Detect and Repair"(Y/N)?
-Microsoft Office cannot run Detect and repair on a terminal server, OK.
Any other idea's?
Thanks
Abdul

Hi Abdul,
You can make this error go away by changing the shortcut to the
application. The default shortcut is a windows installer shortcut/icon
which starts the installer to check the application consistency before
starting project.
If you delete the exisiting shortcut and make a new shortcut which
points directly to winproj.exe, things should work fine.
When you use a transform to install any office products (project,
publisher, visio included) theres a screen where you can define the
shortcuts etc created during the install. Haven't had to run the
custom wizard for a while so this could be flakey, however there's a
tick box titled something like "create installer shortcuts" that you
don't want ticked.
Using non-installer shortcuts means a faster application startup, and
avoids the type of error you're seeing when non-admin users are denied
access to the windows installer (something that ought to be
mandatory!!).
regards,
Rick
