In XP you can press <window>+L and it takes you to the users list, however in Vista all it does it lock the current user and you need another click to get to the users list. Is there a quicker way of switching users? Is there perhaps some tool where you can use for instance <window>+1 or <window>+2 to immediately switch to a different user? 2. No matter how often I do it, when I adjust a folder view's size, column widths etc, then pick Tools, Folder Options, View, then Apply to Folders, the next time I log on it doesn't remember the settings and reverts back to a smaller window. Any ideas as to why?	Chris Caldwell (14167)

Any ideas as to why? 1. Don't know about hotkeys but you could got start>arrow to the right of lock button>switch user. One less click 2. That never worked for me either until I installed SP 1. If you don't have it install it	Blam (54)
