Internet Explorer Protected Mode - Permission to save in folder de


Recommended Posts

I have Vista Ultimate with SP1, with UAC enabled, and my account is the

administrator.

 

I use Ancestry.com for genealogy and when I attempt to save an image of a

census page, I get a message saying I don't have permission to save in the

folder I've choseen (in my documents), and would I like to save in the

pictures folder instead. If I agree to this, I get a similar message saying I

don't have permission to save in the pictures folder either.

 

I can work around this by either running IE7 as an administrator or turning

off Protected Mode.

 

Neither of these workarounds seems to be the right solution, but I can't

work out what I need to do, to give myself permission to save information in

my folder.

 

Does anyone know how Microsoft expects me to configure this so I don't have

to use a workaround?

Well, u can logon the other account(administrator) for test, if the other

account can save, may be your profile problem; if can't save, may be the

folder permission setting problem. U can try it first.
