[Regedit] Font management for Win7 limited user
To allow a limited account user to manage fonts in XP, all I needed was to give the user full permission to the following keys
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current Version\Type 1 Installer\Type 1 Fonts
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current Version\Fonts
I was not able to do the same with Win7. First the "Type 1 fonts" key is gone (or moved), second my font software Maintype refuses to launch until an admin password is given (same for direct drag and drop in the fonts folder). Any suggestions on which keys should be permitted for writing to the fonts folder?
YOUR HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED
