Lionel Elie Mamane <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEEDINFO |UNCONFIRMED Ever confirmed|1 |0 --- Comment #12 from Lionel Elie Mamane <[email protected]> --- (In reply to comment #10) > User session means "from Dos Prompt"? No, user session means "after pressing CTRL-ALT-DELETE and giving a username/password", ultimately launched through the Windows GUI (even if opening a command prompt from the GUI and launching from there). Command prompt = what you call DOS prompt. Everything launched directly/indirectly from the GUI inherits the user session's environment (security and otherwise). Windows has a mechanism to run scripts automatically at OS Start/Stop (and user session Logon/Logoff), through something called "Group Policy". I use the domain group policy (centrally administered from the domain controller for a group of machines), but using the local policy should (?) give the same results. Scripts run through this mechanism have no user session active, because... there is no user session (guaranteed to be) open! Security-wise, they run as a special user SYSTEM (that is even more privileged than Administrators by the way), like some core services do. The rest of the environment, I dunno, but I can imagine that e.g. there is no HKCU (HKEY_CURRENT_USER) registry tree there. So, for example, on way I could imagine this bug happening is if LibreOffice tries to interrogate some registry key in HKCU to detect whether Microsoft Office is installed, then it will not find it. (But that would be buggy in other ways anyway, since if Microsoft Office is *installed* but never *run* by the current user, there will be no trace in HKCU.) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
