I'm not sure if this is a bug.
If i push the F1 key over the word "WriteLine" in a
Console.WriteLine() statement i get msi windows installer pop-up
dialogs viewing some content in the msdn July 2003 library.
This only happens when I'm running under a non-administrator account
as microsoft recommends for development work with .net.
If i deinstall the VS.NET 2003 and use the MSDN documentation directly
all works.
I'm using the july 2003 MSDN within VS.NET Professional. I've tried
full-install and custom install
with no difference -- only running as admin works.
The wwwroot$ is shared and explicit permissions for the
non-admin user has also been enabled.
Here's the messages that pop up.
Preparing to install ...
Gathering required information
Please wait while Windows configures Visual Studio.NET
Professional 2003 - Italian
Error 1606: Could not access network location wwwroot$:
Unable to get security info for this object.
Error 1606. Could not access network location VS
Developers (could not create group)
It's happened everytime.
If i use the Administrative account all work and it's works even if i
give to the user the PowerUser privilege, call the help, and than go
back to the "normal user" privilege again.
Someone can help me ??
Thanks a lot
Stefano

Stefano,
I was having the same problems on every computer that I installed VS.NET on. I think I found the solution.
Try importing one or both of these into the registry of your User account:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Common]
"UserData"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Common\UserInfo]
"UserInitials"=hex:00,00
"UserName"=hex:00,00

Hi Art,
following your way i have finally found a solution for this problem.
The problem is related at 2 Office XP keys in the registry.
I have find that if in your machine you install OFFICE XP all works.
So i have investigating what changes do in the registry Office XP and
i have found these 2 crucial keyss
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
First Key
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Common]
"UserData"=dword:00000001
"OSAShortcut"=dword:00000001
"WebDriveUserData"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Common\Search]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Common\Search\Scopes]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Common\Search\Scopes\My
Computer]
@="{3933B2EA-3EF1-11D3-8D06-005004838597}"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Common\Search\Scopes\My
Email]
@="{3933B2EC-3EF1-11D3-8D06-005004838597}"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Common\Search\Scopes\My
Projects]
@="{3933B2EB-3EF1-11D3-8D06-005004838597}"
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Second Key
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Proofing Tools]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Proofing
Tools\Custom Dictionaries]
"1"="CUSTOM.DIC"
And all works !!!!!!!!!!!!
I think that someone in MS should check this "deadlock" between VS.NET
2003 and Office XP (or 2003, i presume).
If you don't install VS.NET then help System works in the SDK and in
the MSDN version , without installing Office XP
Probably, VS.NET set some component that when you invoke the help it
try to find something and the installer starts again.
I hope that this can help you !!!

Hi Stefano,
Your solution worked for me. I was worried about importing any of those GUID reg keys but it doesn't seem to cause any problems. Thanks.
And yes, this is definitely something MS needs to fix.
