Hi guys,
I have installed various plug-ins on my local machine, which was done under the administrator profile. When I log on as another user these plug-ins do not seem to work! Has anybody got any tips for me??

Thanks Tam
 
Once your done installing your plug-ins in your administrator account, copy the profile to the Default User folder (in Documents and Settings \ Profiles). From there on, every NEW user to the machine that logs on will use the default profile to create the new profile, thus, having the plug-ins. Any existing profile must be deleted to force it to be recreated.

Will not work with Roaming Profiles, of course.. hehe.

Hey Redd,
Thanks for the idea I will give it a go!! However I copied the administrator profile to the new users profile and it didnt work. But I will give your suggestion a go and let you know what happened.

Thanks
Tam
