The reason why %USERPROFILE% returns such value is because a temporary windows service created by Remote Exec on a target computer runs under LocalSystem account. I don't remember exactly why it was implemented this way, but I'm sure there was a reason. If I recon it correctly one of the reasons was msiexec.exe. Msiexec wouldn't install an application correctly if the host service would be running not under LocalSystem account. Anyway, I think in v4.0 we will make this it as a configurable option; so a user would be able to specify which account type to use for the temporary service.</P><P>As I workaround...may be you could try to use "runas" command in your script?!Wed, 13 Jun 2007 21:51:45 GMTSupport (s-code)http://vncmanager.com/forum/Topic1496-3-1.aspxHi, this is me :D !<br><br>I've a little strange problem using %userprofile% and %appdata% environment variable in a Batch script (.bat).
