2.1.17 Changing the Access Permissions of the Windows Client Installation Folder

Incompatibility

When changed for install folder the Windows client from default, the access permissions of the installed files and folder changes to read and execute.

The above changes apply to non-administrators.

This incompatibility occurs with all supported Windows client operating systems. Refer to "Required Operating System" in the Installation and Setup Guide for Client for information on the operating environment.

Action method

This change was made simply to enhance security, therefore, no action is normally required.

However, if existing access permissions are required, this change can be reverted by running installDir\setup\revert_cacls.bat as an administrator after installation.
