Solution On Vista, before you use the Multi-User install and Teachers Toolkit on to a local machine you need to change permissions on 2 folders, the Admin and User Folders. After the installation the first step is to go to Start / Texthelp Systems, right click with your mouse on the Teachers Toolkit and select the option, ‘Run as Administrator’. This will open the Teachers Toolkit and you can then now create a Shared login and user/ users who will have access to Read and Write on the machine. It is then necessary to browse to C:\\Program Files\\Texthelp System\\Read And Write 8, right click and under Properties in each of the ‘Admin’ and ‘User’ folders that have been automatically created, unselect the Read Only button if this is ticked. Also select the Security Tab and give each folder Full Control for all users so that the individual user settings can be saved to the folders.
