Funny, I do exactly this to public machines that are locked down as to not 
allow browsing of the local drives. Easier to copy from an unrestricted master 
machine to \\publicPC1\c$\<wherever<file:///\\publicPC1\c$\%3cwherever>> than 
logging in locally, unlocking the settings, copying the file, then relocking 
the settings…

Hi all,

Our CAD program (Vectorworks) uses libraries that have to placed under the

C:\Program files\vectorworks2015 or C:\Program files (x86)\vectorworks2015\

directory.


Using a batch file fails due to the default security settings to the Program 
Files directory, however, it can/will work if the batch file is "run as 
administrator". (rather not do that if possible)

Getting the vendor to change the software is not going to happen, can someone 
advise or suggest a way to get this accomplished ?
