Help with connection string

[liwaste]

I am deploying my application on a 64 bit windows 7 system (setting the platform property to x86) , after the installation process the app needs to set its connection string in the config file; and this is where I am having issues, the app is not able to write to the config file if/when its located under the program files directory (no admin privileges??), the app works fine when installed on a public folder.

Please let me know how to give admin or write access to my app when its installed to the default program files directory

Thanks for your help

Liwaste,

You can control permissions for folders by right clicking on the folder in question and selecting "Properties." From there, you would select the "Security" tab and add groups / users there. For additional assistance and feedback,
Microsoft does have an official Windows 7 Support Forum located here Windows 7 IT Pro Category . It is supported by product specialists as well as engineers and support teams.
