One typically does not "logon" to EGuide, so there may be something else going on and EGuide is just the messenger.

Try granting write access to the directory. See http://support.sas.com/kb/32/582.html .

Search for the error message at support.sas.com.

Call tech support.

The messages seem to indicate the Operating System permissions aren't allowing EG to access some needed files from D:\AppData\MUIRR2\Application Data\SAS. If the login used for EG is different from the person who logged into the machine (probably MUIRR2), that might be the problem.

It's probably a good idea to check with Tech Support; however, I suspect changing the Windows permissions on the users machine is where you'll need to go. Tech support would have more details about what kinds of OS permissions are needed and for which user(s).
