| New shortcuts being installed on both users desktops on Vista? |
| (1/1) |
| Masterlegodude:
When ever a new program is installed on our Vista computer, a desktop shortcut is created not only on the desktop of the user who's installing it, but also on the other user(s) desktop Is there a way to stop this from happening? |

When installing choose not to create a desktop shortcut or if the option is available choose not to install for all users. |

Unless you are installing as admin. |
