Multiple Users and Programs

[Guest]

I installed a program on my laptop. There are 3 users, I only want one user
to have access to the program. There is a shortcut on each desktop for the
program. This happened automatically during the installation. What do I do?

Just delete the desktop item from other users. Login as administrator
and launch windows Explorerer. The shortcut icon should be in this
path:

C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Desktop

If the users are clever, they can always use the program but let us see
if this helps.

Thanks -- I checked and do you think your solution would apply if the path
is C: not sure what was here/all users/and then something else

I know it's hard to understand me, but I'm not at all experienced with
computers

YES. You need to change USERNAME with actual names of your users. for
example KRUZEN.
