How do I edit an User's Account?

Question

Hi. I'm wanting to know how to edit an account on my computer.

I know how to set up the account, but I want to remove all those extra programs so that all that user can do is the basics.

I want no problems occuring, incase they accidently run the program.

Does anyone know the best way to do this? Thanks.

Also, could you advise what I should do about my IE browser that's acting buggy?

Thanks.

Answer 1

I assume you are using XP?

If so, you will need to have admin rights.

With admin rights open the Control Panel and click on User Accounts.

Find the Account you wish to edit and change this account to a Limited Account. Then the person with this account will not be able to install programs or start/stop services. They will be able to use any program in the start menu though.

If you are having issues with IE you might try to upgrade depending on your version, or you can use FireFox. www.tryfirefox.com, I think that's the URL.

hope that helps
