SCR #11989 |
|
Title |
Pesticides.mtl is only accessible by the user that installed PCD. |
|
Description |
To reproduce this problem:
Install PCD as User1. Login in as User2. The Pesticides.mtl file is read-only for that User2 so it doesn't work.
Workaround:
Use the Windows File Explorer to change the permissions for all the PCD (.mtl) database files to be write-able (not read-only) by all intended users.
These files are installed under the MassHunter "home" directory, under "databases". For example:
D:\MassHunter\databases |
|

-select "landscape", "fit to page", "only highlighted items", "include search parameters" and "print structures"
-select 360X240 or 540x360 and print.
The report has 3 pages; page 3 is empty except for the column headers. |

|
Description |
