System Environment

[hooverd]

I have been searching threads and Forums but can't find an answer to this problem. I have a VB Script that maps drives and deletes temp folders and temp Internet folders. I need also to delete the WINNT temp folder, but that requires different permissions than a regular user has. I saw a thread that talkes about using Cacl.exe but don't know exactly how to incorporate it into my script. Thanks in advance for all the help.

The synatx would be:

CACLS %WINDIR%\TEMP /E /G "EVERYONE":F

But the problem is that you need Administrator priviliges to make the CACLS change. (Sort of a Catch 22 situation).

You might consider a RUNAS wrapper: thread779-676827
You need only run this once by the way on each machine.
