Default Running apps in XP Home


XP Home SP 2, 5 user accounts, 4 of those are limited accounts, 1 is
admin.
Load an app under the admin account for all users to run. The admin
account can run the app fine.
Unfortunately, none of the users are able to run the app. The error
states:
"User <limited user name> unable to write file E:\pmwpmuser.dat"
The folder properties has Read Only checked. Tried to uncheck read only
and it will not stay unchecked.

Does any one know what I have to do to allow limited users to run these
apps?
(other than giving them admin rights)

Thanks.
Mark
