Desktop Management 6.5 - ZDM6.5 Application Launcher
(NAL)Situation
If a file is
locked when NAL tries to overwrite it, it gets put into a
pendingfilerename state, and NAL asks for a reboot. After
rebooting, the file is overwritten, but only default permissions
remain.
If the file
is not locked, it is overwritten, and the permissions remain
unaltered.
