Issue with Not printing in IE7, using ccCleaner - Revisited

[Guest Fyvush Finkel]

There was a post back in the middle of June, and I'll cut and paste the

contents. The question I have is that I have the TEMP directory on the C:

drive. I have changed the environment variables TMP and TEMP to point to

C:\TEMP.

 

Within the Temp directory I have created a LOW directory as suggested. I

still can't print from IE7.

 

Questions: Do I need to create the low file in

C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Temp\Low when I have the environment

variables pointing to C:\TEMP ?

 

Do I need to run the following command as entered here or can I run it on

the C:\TEMP\LOW directory?

icacls C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Temp\Low /setintegritylevel

(OI)(CI)low

 

I tried to run against the C:\TEMP\LOW directory and still can't print. I

haven't used ccCleaner since.

 

Thank you

Running CCleaner by any chance?

 

From MVP Bill Castner:

 

An example of why the problem comes about, and its solution:

 

In Vista when you run CCleaner, it deletes the

C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Temp\Low folder. This causes Internet

Explorer 7 to give you an error message when attempting to print. I have

found a work around which must be done every time you are done running

CCleaner. First you have to go to

 

C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Temp\

 

and recreate the Low folder. Then you have to run the following command:

 

icacls C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Temp\Low /setintegritylevel

(OI)(CI)low

 

The issue is one of protected mode. FIrefox does not run in protected

mode and does not show an error. IE 7 runs in protected mode and cannot

access the Low folder if you create one unless you set its integrity

level to low.

 

1. Make sure this path exists - C:\Users\YourName\AppData\Local\Temp\Low

 

2. Start, Run, and enter in the box:

 

icacls C:\Users\YourName\AppData\Local\Temp\Low /setintegritylevel

(OI)(CI)low

Hit Ctrl+Shift+Enter to run the command with Administrator priviliges.
