Hi
I guess the subject says it all. I've just copied an installed application from one PC to another (I know, probably a big mistake) and of course it won't run properly. I don't care too much about this but now when I hit Alt-Ctrl-Del I haven't got the option to shutdown. Nor is the Shutdown option available from the Start menu. OS is Win98SE. Is it a changed registry setting or something that is accessible via msconfig? The installed app was ChiBrow 5.5 (a child friendly browser). TIA |

Is there a better way to set policies? |

Sounds like you hosed the registry.
