Hi,

Looks like a permission issue.

Please go to www.sysinternals.com to download filemon and regmon tool.

Since the filemon and regmon only runs under administrator account, we have
to use "Run As". Logon as non-admin, on Windows XP, right click on the EXE
and select Runas. Specify the administrator account. On Windows 2000, bring
up a command window and type runas command to see how to use it.

When regmon and filemon are launched in non-admin account, set the filter
to "dexplore.exe" which is the executable of the MSDN library. Then, start
capturing and launch MSDN. After the Repair dialog appears, stop capturing.
Save the captured result as two txt files. Search for "accdenied", "access
denied" in these two txt files to see what files or registry keys needs
more permissions for non-admin.



Best regards,
Bradley Jiang
