Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to maintain the desktop settings after a user has logged out? For example, I would like to create one Standard account in Vista so many users can log in with that account. This means if one user changes these settings the origian settings are maintained when they log off. So the next Standard user must see the ORIGINAL settings. Mac Leopard has a guest account that deletes all activity when a user logs off. I would like to replicate this in Vista. Any help appreciated. -- stephanj ------------------------------------------------------------------------ stephanj's Profile: http://winvistaclub.com/forum/member.php?userid=413 View this thread: http://winvistaclub.com/forum/showthread.php?t=21196 |

I would like to replicate this in Vista. I believe Steady State will do this. I know that DeepFreeze from Faronics will. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/sharedaccess/default.mspx More on SteadyState: http://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?t=27570 SteadyState support - http://forums.microsoft.com/WindowsToolsandUtilities/ShowForum.aspx?ForumID=1660&SiteID=69 Malke -- MS-MVP Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic!
