Default SE4 on XP Home with Limited Account
Hi all!
Anyone know if it's possible to play SE4 on Windows XP Home if you have only a Limited (non-adminstrator) account? I tried setting it up for my brother, but when he ended his turn, he got an error about not having permissions to access a file. I was going to change the permissions on the SE4 folder to let him write to it, but then I remembered that XP Home doesn't let you set individual folder permissions. Is there anything I can do to get around this? I thought maybe I could try moving SE4 out of the Program Files directory, since Windows is probably protecting that more than other places on the hard drive, but I haven't tried that yet... think that might work?
