If nothing else changes it on startup, %SystemDrive%\.
I say it this way, because NT doesn't have to have a C drive. It can be any letter you assign to the volume. I have a machine at home that starts up on F:. So, when you open any command prompt, you don't get a "C:\>" prompt, you get "F:\>".

What do you mean by home directory? Did you mean the default directory of "My Document" folder or system or program file folder. In my opinion, these default folder you can check from the command prompt by typing the command SET and press enter.

On my PC Net.Exe is not functional except System32 folder.
I think it is the problem of path adjustment.
In the Command Prompt of Windows XP I check path configuraton by path command. The path is adjusted to
PATH=%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Fi<br />
les\Common Files\Autodesk Shared\;C:\Program Files\backburner 2\;C:\MATLABR11\bi<br />
n;C:\MATLABR11\bin;<br />
How I solve it?

What is net.exe?
Tozzi is right: Gaia is getting rid of us.
Do you feel the way you hate or do you hate the way you feel?

If you PATH at a CMD prompt and it gives you exactly what you posted, this means that the Path value type in the registry is REG_SZ and not REG_EXPAND_SZ.
Open RegEdit and navigate down to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment
to find the Path value.
You'll have to open the current Path value, copy the string that's in it, delete the path value, then create a new value called Path, then paste the string back into the the new value.

I copied following path by regedit from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment\path
The path is as under:
%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Autodesk Shared\;C:\Program Files\backburner 2\;C:\MATLABR11\bin;
The problem still persists.

Did you delete the Path value and recreate it as a REG_EXPAND_SZ type? If you did not use this type, you just recreated the problem all over again. IT MUST BE A REG_EXPAND_SZ value type!
Oh! You must reboot for the change to take effect...

After that restart my computer and when i log on i found the previous document that i have print still remain in the printer queue. Can anyone give me the point what is this problem come from? and how to solve it?

Thank you very much for your information. My printer is connect directly to the computer and i never set it to offline. Now I use this script[^] in the group policy for the shutdown and start up script to clear all the information of the printer queue.

That gets around the problem. It doesn't fix it.
The thing that would be concerning me is what is causing the problem and is it eventually going to get worse?

Anyone know how to programmatically change a LOCAL drive letter and have the change take effect immediately? (I can do it using WMI on network mappings, but I've been unable to do it on a local drive. Found a way to do it that changes the registry, but it requires a reboot....)
Thanks for any suggestions.

Try to check at this code[^] but i suggest you to do this on the testing machine in order to prevent system failur.

I just read a documentation and found that, you won't be able to change the drive letter of the system drive (primary partition where boot.ini file reside on).

I also used to face this problem before. But it based on the situation of your application. The problem that i face before is the time that windows still use the file or resource on the CD but i try to eject it out. So windows ask for the CD with the correct resource in order to finalize its task. Or when you install an application, some feature are pending to be install like Ms office. Any feature that you try to use for the first time then it will ask to install from the CDROM.

In my opinion, you should notify which is the CD that you install and cause this problem. Then try to insert that CD in order to transfer some file that windows might require afte the installation.

We use Active Directory on a Windows 2000 server and Microsoft Exchange. Our workstations are mix of OS from Windows 98 to XP Pro. Our Microsoft Office versions also vary from 2000 to XP to 2003. My problem is that I need users to be able to logon on to any machine and be able to read their mail without coming to me to go and set up the properties of outlook/exchange to change the user. I have found some scripts etc to find out the current user, to get details from the Active Directory but I have not been able so far to find how to change the mailbox setting from a script.
Has anybody any idea?
Regards
