Hi everyone,

Can anyone tell me if (and if so, how) it's possible to install
software purely for the account of my wife (regular user) and not for
myself. With this software programme some services need to be
installed and since I never work with that stuff it only slows me
down. My log-in is as an administrator.

Other question is the opposite. When I bought this computer I
installed Outlook 2003 and purely for my own use. Recently my wife
also uses this computer and now I'll have to adjust Outlook so she can
also send and receives e-mails. Does anyone how I can arrange that?
Preferably with no migration.

Thanks in advance.

Yours sincerally, Kind regards,

Ed.

Hi Ed,

Take a look at this page concerning your first question.
Installing software in Windows XP:

As far as Outlook goes in your wife's user account, Outlook will have to be
setup from scratch. Your setting will not migrate over to her account.
