can I modify other users settings?

[jbmago]

I need add customized information in users key's that works in the same machine.
I don't know how I can do it...

If I'm administrator, can I modify the registry keys of any user??... how??

And how I can see the usernames of all users??

I can do it going to \profiles folder, but I would like do it using the registry...

Thanks!!

You can change some settings for new users in HKEY_DEFAULT_USER (HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT)
if users have sufficient rights to import an registry-file with the command regedit.exe /s <regfile>
you can put this in the user's logonscript or somewhere else.

I could give you some more tips, if you can specify which key's needs to be imported, what os is used, what rights users have, etc.

Ok... thanks, but:

I would add/modify value keys of some users:

I'm making a software instalation that requires personal configuration.
It will run for administrator user of NT/2000.
In the installation he will chose the users that can run the application and their personal configuration, represented with values in the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\...

hello!

With my history of the registry you cant get a list of all the users. But you can LOGIN as the user you want to set settings for, then go to regedit and under the current users is the user you are logged on as.
