I have just had new computer with vista about 2 weeks and think I made a

mistake. I am set up as administrator which I guess is right. However, you

get all those pop up questions every time you want to do something so just

found out about creating a standard user profile to use for everyday use.

Here goes the question.

 

Is there any way to transfer all my programs that I have already set up

under administrator and transfer to my standard user profile or do I have to

set up each program from scratch, like the win mail and all my other

programs please say that isn't so. Will wait to hear.

 

Thanks in advance for any and all help.

Create another profile as an Administrator.

Then go in and change the current profile from Administrator to

Standard User.

Go to User Accounts in the Control Panel to add and change profiles.
