How to customize the user account

Is it possible to limit a user account to only run a program and do nothing else?

Basically, I want them to be able to access anything, except for the selected program and the logout button.

Is this possible?

If so, how?

Thank you

Will be.

    Somehow, I blocked my user account (login) and I tried to help but can't find any info. How to UNLOCK the user account. Thank you

    Hello

    Click the account icon that was locked and enter the password IF you know and otherwise:

    Try Safe Mode - several times, press F8 that you start. The Admin account there is no default password
    so unless someone has changed, you should have access there. Then Control Panel - accounts - users
    Manage another account - use this down your user account (to the lowest level) APPLY/OK
    then go back and reset it to the Admin APPLY/OK - this clearly allows corruption. Do this several times.
    Then fix the password in your usual account. Do not forget to leave your account administrator if you
    wish.

    If no joy Mode without failure:

    Try this - use the hidden administrator account to lower your user account (to the lowest level) APPLY/OK
    then go back and reset it to the Admin APPLY/OK - this clearly allows corruption. Do this several times.
    Then fix the password in your usual account. Do not forget to leave your account administrator if you
    wish.

    Make another Admin account with your password and use it to fix the others if necessary. (just for
    repair, don't use regular account, not a safety valve) always keep a spare ADMIN account.

    DO NOT LEAVE THE ENABLED LSA OR USE DAILY. If it corrupts you are toast!

  • How to fix the user accounts in windows 8

    How to correct the user account in windows 8 on new g7 2246nr, I put to your laptop using the Microsoft account then switched to a local account.  I found myself with i admin working the rest of my files are broken up between 3 other user accounts.  I spoke with Microsoft to try to consolidate the accounts and they used a command line in the command, but he has not done. I always work with the system, but it has problems. I reloaded the software so for 3 times. All know how to correct the problem without reload all the software again?  also, after configuring sharepoint in Office Pro Plus, he created another administrator account.  I do not think this would happen?

    Hi BJ2124,

    Although I regret the inconvenience that you had with your experience of Microsoft Windows 8, you can better receive the technical expertise you need by contacting Microsoft about the issue of multiple account creation.

    Also, here is a reference link to change logins to Microsoft for local accounts:

    Under XP.  One of the user accounts seems to have been directed to the wrong user folder (the one that has been somehow created) in Documents and Settings.  Start menu, My Documents, etc are now empty, but they used to be OK.  The (desired) exact content is always in a folder user, but it is apparently not accessed.  I looked and looked and can't find how to reset the pointer (for example, identify the correct folder for that user).  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • How to remove the user account from the connection Start Page (therefore restart goes directly to the desktop without the need for any clickthru)?

    On my Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64-bit system, all I had to do was to remove all the accounts (other than 'administrator') in addition to my login information main user account and remove the password of the Admin account and I use a main user account, and then whenever I reboot, reboot goes all the way to the Windows desktop (i.e. through it does not stop with a cover page showing the user account).

    -It does not seem that this approach works for my Vista SP2 Business Edition 32 bit.  In fact - I get TWO accounts of user with the exact name even appear (my account "DougL12"), as well as the "Administrator" account  None of these accounts have passwords (I can just click on one of them, which brings up a screen to enter a password, then click again without entering any PW, and then I get thru on my desk).

    When I go to 'User accounts' control Panal and select 'Manage another account', windows displays a screen showing three accounts:

    (1) "Guest" (power off);

    (2) "DougL12" (hey I am running, whose B-T-W has privileges admin; also do not have a password); and

    (3) 'administrator' (which, if I choose only, is not an option 'disable', although it has not one)

    (password).

    NOTE: page does not display "" versions of the user account "DougL12", although the login screen that is telling.

    so:

    (1) what do I do to eliminate the appearance of user accounts / Login Screen (i.e., default to my main user

    Account, "DougL12" and should not click)?

    (2) any thoughts as to why the system could be displaying two Occurrences of the user account Login "DougL12" on the

    login screen?

    As you said that 'two performance everything', I want to clarify if you are referring to two user accounts?

    Move the users directory and directory ProgramData on one drive other than the drive that contains the Windows directory Warning Using the ProgramData parameter to redirect folders to one drive other than the system volume will block your ability to upgrade to later versions of Windows.

    By changing the location by default of the user profile directories or folders of program data to one volume other than the system volume, you cannot service your Windows installation. Impossible to apply updates, patches or service packs to install. We recommend that you do not change the location of the user profile directories or files from program data.

    It is probably best to reset the laptop to his 'Condition of the factory' and then set yourself up as the new owner - see section "recovery when Windows 8 will not start properly" on the next Document in HP.

  • How to remove the user account with password, start menu

    I got this laptop from my dads boss and there are two accounts of users per password and I don't know what they are, is it possible to remove them? because I can not get on the phone to use with these passwords there.

    At this point your best approach would be to reinstall Windows on this machine.  When you start the machine, search for a key, press the first splash screen OEM that could be labelled 'System Recovery' and [quickly] press this button.

    If you do not have what you need to reinstall windows, contact the manufacturer for a set of installation floppies or try some of the suggestions contained in the articles referred to in the following article (which is on the news only that we're allowed to talk in this Microsoft forum taken supported)

  • How to create the user account of readonly for all devices to CISCO ACS?

    Elements of strategy > ... > Authorization and permissions > The peripheral Administration > Shell profiles > Edit: 'ReadOnly '.

    I tried all levels of privilege, but I am unable to connect to the "asdm" with only the privilege to read.

    so, can someone help me?

    I'm not an expert on all devices, but I can tell you that while you can use a name of user and password to access all devices, you can't have a "generic" set of rules. AAA services operate different based on the model/platform. For example, ASAs, WLCs and Nexus devices are completely different compared to the standard IOS routers and switches.

  • How to customize the interface user OBIEE 11.1.1.9.0

    Hi all

    I was wondering how to customize the user of OBIEE 11.1.1.9.0 interface.

    For earlier versions, there was a guide to go to different folders by default and exemplary, adjust and modify your HTML, CSS, or XML files.

    I was reading the new style/skin of skyros, but I can't find a guide how to customize this skin and style.

    The 11.1.1.9.0 version of OBIEE isn't the same folder structure as the 11.1.1.7.xx version (where you set the fusionfx or blafp styles and skins), so I'm a little lost around that.

    So someone has more information about the customization of skyros /11.1.1.9.0 styles and skins?

    Thanks in advance!

    There is this new (I think) doc who can help: https://docs.oracle.com/middleware/11119/biee/BIESG/answersconfigset.htm#BIESG9198
