Getting Error PDOXUSRS.NET

Hello, I have a user who is trying to run a report in report smith and keeps getting the error "Permission denied: C:\PDOXUSRS.NET"  I gave him administrator rights and it worked fine.  However, I do not want him to have administrator rights.  Is there something else I can do to fix this.  Thank you.

Try to set the following permissions on the client computer:

C:\ folder - set permission List Folder to Everyone

C:\PDOXUSRS.NET file - set permission Modify or Full Control to Everyone

You can restrict it, giving permission only to Domain Users or even more to give only to the user in question.
I made the assumption that the name provided was already the folder name, but certainly the folder should be included in providing permissions. ... Thinkpads_User

Agree, it is probably a permissions issue.  Make sure the user has permissions to the file and the directory.

May also need permissions to the temp directories.
