Computer help with language packets.

[Daydreamer]

Ok here's the deal. I work as one of the computer administrators at my college, and for quite a while now we've been having trouble with language packets, especially Japanese.

The problem is that the packet works just fine and dandy if you are logged in locally on the machine as administrator or other special accounts we have setup, yet when you log in as a 'user' on a domain (as in when you type your user name / pw, it selects a domain and not "this machine") it just won't work. In fact the Japanese packet doesn't even show up.

We have noooo idea why this is happening and have questioned many other people from many other departments on campus and no one can figure it out, not even the people who have been doing comp tech stuff since there was such a thing as comp tech stuff.

Lately I've been thinking it's a problem with permissions, and a lot of my co-workers think this is a pretty good assumption. If we could just click the 'full access' box under the correct security tab, it should work. However, no one has any clue where the folder that stores that language packets is, so we can't test this theory out. I've googled pretty much everything I can think of to find said directory with no results.

Anyone got any ideas as to where it may be? Or any ideas as to other things that may be causing the problem?

C:\WINDOWS\ime
C:\WINDOWS\system32\IME
blocking access to those folders and somewhere an ime???.exe (don't have it on my work PC) probably in windows folder or system32 would cause it to not work

Tried it, set it to full access, but no dice. Do you have the Japanese packet installed on your computer? If so can you tell me if these folder names match up, CINTLGNT, PINTLGNT, and TINTLGNT. These might be for multiple languages, not sure.

Update: It's not permissions. I just gave full privileges to all users and it still doesn't work. For some reason if I log in as a domain user I can only type in English and Chinese of all things...
