So basically, I have 2 users on my computer. Me and my cousin. Since my cousin knows pretty much nothing about computers, I don't want him screwing up my computer by installing random stuff. I went away for 4 days and after I came back I had all this shit installed on my computer, like random toolbars and stuff. So I was just wondering, how can I make it so that he can play all the games and stuff but not be able to install stuff. I know this sounds mean but I really don't want my computer to get fucked up again after I just reformatted. I tried setting it to a Limited Account but, he couldn't play CS or anything.
I think you have to set him up a user setting and find the games and stuff you want him to be able to use. then set those for all users. If im not mistaken. I could be wrong it happens from time to time
Under Windows you are pretty much screwed. None of the other user types have enough access to do anything. Even play a game. Administrator is the only way it will work. Blame Microsoft. Also...Its no better in Vista. No surprise of course.
