Guest Account in Vista Premium

[Kelvin]

I managed to change the Guest account to administrator type. Tried to amend
the type back to standard user with other administrator accounts without
success. Even tried the hidden administrator account.

The Guest account does allow the standard user option to be selected but
nothing happens when this is applied, it remains as an Administrator.

Anyone have any idea how to reset the Guest account to a standard user

Many thanks

Hi Shawn

It's definately the Guest account. I can turn it off and On. When signed on
as the guest account profile it gives the option to change it to a standard
user and the apply button is enabled but nothing happens. When I access this
account using any other account profile (even the hidden admin) it only give
the option to disable the account or change the picture, the option to change
type is not shown.

On your system is the option shown to change user type when logged in as the
Guest Account?

However, I would suggest that you don't try to change it if it is.

Hi Shawn

It nearly worked up to the point of the Advanced User Management. The lusmgr
panel states the plugin does not work with vista premium. However, by going
back and clicking on the user tab in User Accounts it allowed me to click on
the guest account and click on its properties. The group membership tab then
allowed me to set the Guest account back to a standard user.

Fantastic work mate. Well done and many thanks for your help.
