Now, how do I fix that short of reinstalling completely from scratch? If I run the installer again, it will give me repair or remove options but the repair does not offer to set permission for all users again. Thomas ID: 37927 ·

Except: I am getting an empty Windows 7 message box titled "BOINC screensaver diagnostic error" whenever the screensaver tries to start on all the non-admin user accounts. Thomas ID: 37931 ·
