Is HKEY_CURRENT_USER different for each user that logons on PC
Hello,
A question about Registry Windows.
IE8 has problems with ASP.NET web apps. If I load different ASP.NET web apps, each one on different IE8 sessions, then session variables of .NET get mixed up.
One solution for that is to force that IE8 behaves like IE7. For that, there are some articles suggesting to add some values in Windows Registry key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER.
I attach article where you can read about it.
My question is:
At the office, end-user-A, with limited rights, logon on PC. End-user-A can't change Registry. Administrator-user logon on that PC and add new value to HKEY_CURRENT_USER.
New DWORD value called TabProcGrowth to add in:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software \Microsoft \Internet Explorer\Main
TabProcGrowth = 0
Is TabProcGrowth the same when end-user-A logon on PC?
If not, how could we make what the article suggest?
Thanks

Yes, it just mirrors a subtree of HKEY_USERS

Yes, Neilsr, I think you are right. Because I logon on same PC with two different users, AdminA and AdminB. With AdminA I add new value to HKEY_USERS. But when I logon as AdminB and check Registry, I didn't see that new value.
Sorry for my ignorance, where can find the logon script on Windows?

If you are not on a domain then you could could just put the .reg file into documents and settings/all users/start menu/programs/startup and let it run from there

My end-users are in a domain and with limited rights.
If I put .reg file to the logon script: /documents and settings/all users/start menu/programs/startup, would it be added to Registry? Limited rights of my end-users wouldn't let to edit Registry?

Neilsr, I tried to create that new value on HKEY_USERS, expecting that it will be reflected on HKEY_CURRENT_USERS, but it hasn't.
