How can add, delete, change, or edit settings for default user or new
accounts *PRIOR* to the person logging in? Everytime I create a new
non-admin user account, I have certain applications attempt to run (even
though they are NOT in HKLM/Run or Start>Startup for all users but wind up in
the current users settings), somehow these apps are running in the current
users settings and not per user (does this make sense)? These are apps that
I only want those with administrator privlages to run and not anyone else!

Logon as Account_A

Unhide; C:\Documents and Settings\Default User

Set all parameters in all software.

Reboot PC.

Logon as Account_B (Admin)

Right-Click on "My Computer" and choose "Properties"
Choose "Advanced"
Under User Profiles choose "Settings"
Highlight; Account_A
Choose "Copy To"
Browse to; C:\Documents and Settings\Default User
Choose OK.


New users will now inherit the settings in 'Default User'.
