Once I saw this or similar, after a local administrator was playing too much with the built-in privileges for a folder. A folder has been created with *only* Administrator and explicit user groups. Built-in groups and built-in users had been deleted or restricted out of paranoia.
The users "system", "local service" and "network service" also had been deleted. Then the privileges of that folder have been copied to all child folders. The letter D:\ in your posting suggests it is on a separate partition. Make sure that the typical built-in users do have the appropriate privileges and that nobody was moving folders around without also correcting the references. > Dear All, > My program has been working without problems on the computer of one > of my users.
