Cannot find the working folder for this program. The program may have difficulty locating its files and documents. Make sure that the working folder is specified properly in the property sheets for the program and any shortcuts to it.

If you click YES, the logon script runs.
If you click NO, the logon script does not run.

This message is caused because the Lmscript.exe property sheet in the Working directory field refers to an inaccessible or nonexistent directory.

RESOLUTION

Right click %WINDIR%\System\Lmscript.exe.
Select the Program tab.
Specify a valid directory in the Working field. The default directory is the current directory and can be specified by placing a period "." in the field.
