• How can I disable the guest user to close the PC while the Admin is connected?

  I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate. I found out how to disable the guest user closing at all via the local security policy, but then they can't stop even if the Admin account is offline.

  To clarify a bit, say I want to give my PC to someone, I usually click on change user and connect using the guest account. In this way, they can't access my account because it asks for a password. I want that in such a case, they should not be able to stop the PC as my admin account is always logged.

  However, if someone booted the PC themselves and use the guest account, then they should be able to close too, as my Admin account has not been connected.

  I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate. I discovered how to disable the guest user closing all through local security policy.

  It is the correct method. It is as robust as it is unconditional.

  If you want to have your cake and eat it the guest account must use a powerful "agent" to perform the functions of judgment. A scheduled task would be such an agent. It might work as follows:

  1. Create a scheduled task that runs Script1 to perform these tasks:
     -Check if the C:\Shutdown\Shutdown.txt file exists.
     -If not, the output of the script.
     -If this is the case, delete Shutdown.txt.
     -Check if there is an administrator session. If so, the output of the script.
     S ' there is no live administrator session, shut down the computer by using shutdown.exe.
     The task must run under an administrator account once every 3 minutes.
  2. Create a shortcut on the desktop for the Guest user calling Script2 for these tasks:
     -Check if there is an administrator session.
     -If this is the case, create a pop-up to inform the user that the machine cannot be stopped.
     -If it is not, create the C:\Shutdown\Shutdown.txt file. The scheduled task will 'see' this file and will stop the machine.

• How can I enable disable Activity Manager?

  How can I enable disable Activity Manager?

  General information:
  The activity Manager records all interactions between Thunderbird and your e-mail in one place provider. There is no guesswork more. Just look in one place to see what's going on with your email.
  Activity Manager allows you to follow more closely what is happening in the system and what activities are currently performed (for example, synchronization of folders offline IMAP, download new POP messages). The info in the status bar may appear and disappear quickly sometimes before able to read, but the info is displayed in the Manager activity.

  Useful in the audit of what has occurred and are auto stocks. This can help in the troubleshooting section.

  It appears if you select 'Tools' > 'the activity Manager.
  Thus, it is not something that suddenly arises every two minutes to annoy the user.
  The journal is deleted whenever you leave Thunderbird or you can clear the log manually.
  "Tools" > "activity Manager".
  Click on the button 'clear list '.

  This is an unusual request to stop the activity of logging as a background process and the only way to check what activity account has or has not occurred.

  I have searched and checked preferences to see if it could be turned off, but nothing helped.

  This utility, which has a knowledge of auto-starting locations of any startup monitor, shows you what programs configured to run at system startup or login and that the entries in the order of processing windows. These programs include those in your startup folder, Run, RunOnce, and other registry keys. You can configure Autoruns to show other locations, including Explorer shell, toolbar extensions, helper objects to the browser, Winlogon notifications, auto and many start-up services even more. Autoruns goes way beyond the MSConfig utility bundled with Windows Me and XP.

  See you soon.

  Hello

  I came across a lot of similar questions asked about deletion/deletion/disabling guest user account. the posted questions earlier and google has not provided me with answers specific questions.

  first of all, I know now that the guest user account is a system file that should not be deleted.

  2. Why is it?
  3. What's the harm in having activated once the guest account?

  the record of the guest user now appears in the c:\users\ location. It was not before but the fact now since that once I enabled guest account.
  4. do one thing 'ok' or is it a bad thing?
  5. What are the policies on the restoration of windows and system folders without having to reinstall the windows operating system?

  and finally
  6. in case the guest user account has been disabled/disabled, windows remove settings for it and wipe this account?

  Thanks in advance, forward your answers.

  Hello

  A guest account allows people to have temporary access to your computer. People using the guest account cannot install software or hardware, change settings, or create a password.

  Once the guest account is enabled, you will see the comments folder in the users folder and you will not be able to remove it. And when also disable you the folder of comments will be present, but it will not be enough space.

  If the comments have saved any file on your computer, it will be present in the folder of comments, it won't cause damage to your other user accounts.

• How to manage users of Lightroom photo sharing with the family?

  I'm looking for some best practices on how to manage the workflow of photo sharing.  Obviously the user of Lightroom does not want family members to start messing around with photos outside of Lightroom, and if the photos are not JPGs family members may be unable to view them in any case.  A solution I can think of is to shoot photos in JPG format and in Camera Raw at the same time and save the jpg files in a folder accessible to all and only import Camera Raw ones in Lightroom.

  Flickr works as well.

  You must restore your registry to a point in time before that you have disabled the administrator user.  It is not easy if there is any left on the system administrator user.

  One way to do this is to start your computer from a CD rescue-style such as BartPE and UBCD4Win or Linux Livecd such as Knoppix.  You can then follow the steps in the following article from part 2, step 6, using GUI to copy and rename the files rather than orders from command-line specified in article.

• the administrator cannot access programs, but guest user can

  When I am logged in as an admin user can't access programs, it happens that the program does not exist. When I try to go on internet with Explorer he asks me what program I want to use to access the internet. If I change my user and just go as a guest he let me go on the internet with no problems and have access to all the programs on the desktop. also, when I am logged on as administrator a lot icons in the toolbar have disappeared. It's as if the admin is blocked for doing things, but a guest user can.
  Thank you
