(I have also been prompted for registration, PM> and to set up a new account!) TB! keeps a lot of its configuration in the registry. This configuration includes the account setup, the working directories and general interface preferences. These settings are stored in HKey_Current_User. When you log on to XP as a different user, the HKCU branch of the registry specific to that user is loaded. Therefore when you logged off as admin and logged on a PRM, no TB! registry data is there in HKCU for PRM. When you run TB!, it will will start building registry data from what it finds in the installation directory. All settings aren't there. Registration information isn't stored there among other things. What you need to do is to logon, as XPAdmin, fire up the registry editor by typing regedit.exe at the start menu 'run' command. Navigate to HKCU/Software/Rit Right click on the rit 'folder'/key and select 'export'. Export the key to a file that you can access from whichever user profile you logon as. Now when you log on as PRM, the first thing you do before starting TB! is to restore the rit key by double-clicking on the export file. This should fix your problems. - -- Allie C Martin \ TB! v1.62/Beta7 & WinXP Pro (SP1) List Moderator / PGP Key - http://pub-key.ac-martin.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (Win32) - GPGshell v2.65 iD8DBQE90Ah2V8nrYCsHF+IRApITAKCVZLfz62xLc/eVuDnupL8HGvaXqwCffo4k iLZXAJIzCT8LOh7jDPB/wKg= =guXI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
