Ok. Say I have a program that, and in normal operation the user can change a setting of that program. The program stores the settings in the registry, and because I use an administrator account, when the setting changes in the program, it changes in the registry.
Is there a way to lock certain (one or two) keys in the registry but not the whole registry. I don't want my settings changed for a few programs by other people using my computer. It is very annoying to have to go and change 3-4 different settings every time you want to use the computer.
I know you can use different user accounts, but is there any other way? I don't want my settings changed, but I don't want to lock the whole registry down. Also I don't want some stupid pop-up every time something tries to change the registry entry.
Thanks for the help.
