I can't save my settings or lost my settings in iPOS Payroll or I can't create a payroll file
If you can't save your settings, you have lost your settings in iPOS Payroll or can't create a payroll file, make sure that all users have full access to c:\programdata\ipospay. If you don't iPOS will not be able to store any configuration settings.
Right mouse click on this folder (c:\programdata\ipospay)and under the security tab, ensure ALL Users that use that use the iPOS Payroll app have full access. (CREATOR OWNER and SYSTEM users do not need to be included) That means you need to have each user that uses iPOS payroll full access. For example, if you have a user called Manager and another user called General Manager, you will need to add these specific names to the users list in the Windows security settings panel and check them for full access.
This folder is hidden by default. If you don't see it, use your view options to unhide. Don't confuse this folder with C:\Program Files(x86) or C:\Program Files .
The write only attribute can get removed on non admin users on some Windows updates
