Check that user's rights to his (her) Documents and Settings directory.
XP will do funny things if it doesn't have write rights to that tree.

Subject: [PCTECH] Win XP Pro and multiple users

Hello!

I have a PC here that I have set up multiple users on as they share the 
PC.  Most profiles seem ok, but I have one that does not seem to save
the 
settings for that profile.  It says that it is saving the personal 
settings, but it lies!!  I make a customization (like adding a shortcut
to 
the quick launch portion of the taskbar ), log off the user, and log
back 
on, and the customization is gone.

Any thought on why this one (of about 8) user is having problems, while
the 
rest seem to retain customizations?

Thanks, and Happy Thanksgiving (for those of you who celebrate!)
