Re: RunAsSet and WinXP -> was "msiexec is running on w2k but not on XP"

Simple File Sharing can influence on access to folder and files. 

Because
1.
"With Microsoft Windows XP, you can share files and documents with 
other users on your computer and with other users on a network. 
There is a new user interface (UI) named Simple File Sharing and a 
new Shared Documents feature."

2.
"If you turn on and turn off Simple File Sharing, the permissions on 
files are not changed. The NTFS and share permissions do not change 
until you change the permissions in the interface. If you set the 
permissions with Simple File Sharing enabled, only Access Control 
Entries (ACEs) on files that are used for Simple File Sharing are 
affected. The following ACEs in the Access Control List (ACL) of the 
files or folders are affected by the Simple File Sharing 
interface: • Owner 
• Administrators 
• Everyone 
• System 
"
