On a PC running XP-Home, I have tried to install SM v.2.01 so that it
can be used by multiple users but I am not doing something right.
I need to have both the PC and SM accessible by four users: myself,
wife, and two grandchildren. In XP, I have a Welcome Screen account for
each of the four of us although the two grandchildren's XP accounts are
of the 'limited' type. As I understand SM, I need to have profiles for
each of the four of us.
The problem I am experiencing is that when I install SM, it installs on
the HD but appears only in one XP account. This implies that I have to
install SM four times and take up a lot of HD space with SM files that
are identical. It seems to me that what I should end up with is four
sets of profile files, one for each user, but only a single set of SM
files. Accordingly, I am really confused on how to do the SM
installation correctly.
Advice, comments, or pointers to tutorials that cover this kind of a
problem would be most appreciated. Thanks, in advance, for any assistance.
As Martin Freitag indicates, the account you use has to have
Administrator rights for it to be available to everyone. If you have
things set up some other way then you should uninstall that first.
You, your wife and the kids should each have their own Windows account,
each will have access to one profile - their own. The other responders
have said how to migrate profiles.
