@d-u2: the AutoPatcher has nothing to do with making programs which were only visible to admin (or other non-guest) accounts visible to guest accounts. AutoPatcher, as it's name says, primarily updates your windows xp and server 2003 installations and secondarily installs other add-ons which have nothing to do with what timmyduncan intends to do.

ok bosing, i guest your right.. how about going to the windows registry files?.. i had done this before but you have to back-up your windows registry first before doing something.. just run regedit(registry editor), at the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE" folder, look for "SOFTWARE", look for the folder of the program you want to share.. just right clck to the folder you want and select permission... Pls make a backup first before doing this...

sakto na ang g suggest ni cooldude bro, kun gusto ka na makitan sa imu guest ang tanan program files e copy ang mga shortcuts gkan sa ADMIN profile na makit an nmu sa document and settings sa "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Start Menu\Programs" padung sa "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs" if you want that dli makit an sa guest ang mga program files, you can delete the content of this path "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs" One thing if there's an error copying the files, try to make these things in a network PC making your target pc at standby mode/logon script aka walai users nka login admin man or guest, then proceed with what i mentioned earlier by the correct path... :mrgreen:

Mga bro, maybe some programs will not run by sharing the shortcuts only...

some programs require that you have admin status to be ablle to run it.. but at least the "copying of shortcuts" allows the programs installed to be easily visible. (which serves to answer the query)

timmy:
-- copy all the shortcuts nga imong lang ipa access sa guest sa c:\documents and settings\guest\start menu\programs

-- copy all shortcuts sa c:\documents and settings\all users\start menu\programs sa imong \documents...\administrator\start menu\programs folder para ma kita.an gihapon sa administrator ang tanan programs nga installed.

-- then delete all the shortcuts sa c:\documents and settings\all users\start menu\programs.

hope ma okay. =)
