View Full Version : Guest Account question (revert back to default or orginal settings)
*ProteanThread*

Ok, I've got the guest account setup the way I want (wallpaper and all) is
there a way to force guest account back to these settings if they are
changed ? I've got task bar, display properties, control panel all pretty
much disabled (using Doug Knox's program) but obviously I cannot control
everything. What I would like to do is revert back to the settings I've
setup if some how the users manage to change these settings.
Is this possible?

There must be a folder for the guest account under the Documents and
settings folder. Copy this folder to another part of the partition.
When you want to revert back to the original settings just copy the
folder back, overwriting any changes that may have been made.
Hope this helps

It does but I would prefer it to be automatic. :o)
