Update to Software Restrictions to allow access to TMP files as required by certain applications [HFXCC3077]
Published Date : 21 Feb 2005�� Last Updated : 13 Feb 2020�� Content Ref: DWN347270��





Description

**Please note this only applies to Community Connect 3™ and RM Smart-Tools 3 networks**

Before installing any software update, please refer to TEC90813 and DWN59018 in the Other Useful Articles section below. These articles detail RM's recommendations regarding software update installation and support.

Any references to Community Connect 3 in this document apply equally to RM Smart-Tools 3.



Symptoms

Some applications' installation and runtime files require access to TMP files in the Temp folder of a users local settings area. By default, this is locked down by policy and so certain applications may fail to install or users may experience some lack of functionality or program failure.

For example, Macromedia Studio MX Plus is affected by this issue. Some SIMS packages require this access in order to register DLL files correctly.

You should consider applying this Update if you are running Service Release 4 and are experiencing an application issue relating to security access to TMP files.



Requirements

This Update can be installed on to Community Connect 3 networks running Service Release 4; it is included in Service Release 5.

It should be installed on the first Community Connect 3 domain controller in each site. Servers will not need to be restarted after applying this Update, but workstations will need to be restarted for the change to take effect.



Download Instructions

1.      Click the HFXCC3077.exe file link to download the Update.

2.      Choose to Save the file, browse to the temporary location you wish to save it to (e.g. D:\temp) and click Save.

3.      When it has downloaded, follow the installation instructions below to install the Update.
