Hi,

We have developed a .NET application which uses the trace capabilities of
the System.Diagnostics namespace when it throws an exception. We have also
configured this application to be run when the users log on, preventing them
from using the desktop.

When some of the users run the application and an exception occurs, nothing
is written in the log file. But when you log on to the system with an
account that starts with the desktop and run the application from explorer,
the exceptions are correctly traced in the log file.

All the users have write permissions to the folder where the log file
resides, and these problem occurs even if the user has administrative
privileges. It seems that the problem occurs only when the desktop is not the
startup application.

Any suggestion which could help us would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Jose Antonio
