Can't access programs

[Dave F]

I have XP professional and am set up as an administrator
on the machine. When I install programs, such as games,
my kids can't find them under their limited user
accounts. I assumed that if I insttalled them as the
administrator they would show up on everyone's account.
Any ideas what I did wrong? I did not use the built-in
admin account.

Thanks!

They're not XP compatible games.

Not all installation programs were written for the secure
multi-user XP platform. If you don't have the option during
the install to make entries for all users, go to your
programs menu and copy the programs you want to the Document
and Settings/All Users/Start Menu/programs
