MacMan you obviously doesnt see the problem. Editing group policies and making second account for users are not acceptable. On that machine can exist only admistrator account otherwise system crashes at multiple accounts because some of software and hardware does conflict and can be running only on admin account. Editing group policies isnt decision either because user can re edit them acording his/her wishes since have the admin rights. I have found a solution in one cafe management software but there was problem with licenses cause the company doesnt give me license for gun shop store. /smartlaunch 4.1 software/ So the question is how to do all that blocking. What is the software which can do all his ONLY on administrator and no other account and without touch the group polocies?
