Hi Guys. I need a little help. I'm pretty PC savvy but have never had multipul =users on my PC before, so here goes............. I have just created new profiles on my computer for my children (that all went well) Limited accounts I Have downloaded a card game on my user account hoping it would be in the "ALL PROGRAMS" list for my 3 children in their accounts, but its not. What did I do wrong ? I have managed to find it in C: program files and put a short cut on their desktops but in future is there a way to place the things I download in my user account and make it appear in their ALL PROGRAMS list. Do I have the option to have it just in my account and an option to share. I hope that makes sense. Thanks |

Have you tried installing it to C:\documentsandsetting\allusers ?
It could be that they are limited users and that it will not allow them to run it. -Steve -------------------- Caution: Linux Enthusiast has posted, please be aware that he might start talking about the home folder or ndiswrapper, these are natural and just ignore them.

Hi Steve, Thanks for the reply.
I will try that the next time I download something I want us all to access. I just thought it would need to go into Program files ? Anyway I'll give it a go. Cheers PS. appologies to the Moderators, I've just noticed I have posted in the wrong forum EDIT: Moved to more appropriate forum (which is not problem at all!) ~ stevealmighty This post has been edited by stevealmighty: Aug 12 2007, 07:15 PM |
