Hello all,

I can't seem to run certain programs with multiple users on xp, if I try to open them up, they just close down again. This only happens with one of the 2 user accounts on my pc. Both accounts are administrator accounts.

The two progams in particular are Blue Manager (driver for Bluetooth Dongle) and Nokia Data Suite.

I'm not familiar with either program but figure it's possible that the programs are currently licensed for or are otherwise set for single user use?

Well, you'd think that they'd both work for both users. How would they be set for single user use? How can I change the access?

Be aware that just because both users are on the same PC doesn't equate to each having the right to use the program if my guess is correct about licensing. Each user has a unique profile and possibly a SID if this is XP Pro. Check the software's documentation or their web site for possible restrictions/limitations. You may need to purchase an extra license key?
