Multi Users are a problem

[Terry]

Hello, problem I install Total Commander on a Multi User PC.
I setup button bar buttons for ME ONLY
I also setup FTP locations with Login Name and Passwords.
I use TC all the time.

What do I need to change so the above settings (Button Bar, FTP and other settings) remain available ONLY to my Login?

Thanks in advance for any help,
Terry

I am not sure about button bar, but you can put wincmd.ini and wcx_ftp.ini into your "home dir" i.g. C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents and put on your Desktop iconof TC with cmd-line params /i and /F to spec path and name of your ini files.
For more info read help section 4.a

There is also an "related" ini switch listed at wiki

UseIniInProgramDir=0

This variable will only be read if the wincmd.ini is located in the same dir as the program.
It is the sum of the following values:
1: Use wincmd.ini in program dir if no other location is set via registry or parameters
2: Use wcx_ftp.ini in program dir if no other location is set via registry or parameters
4: Override registry settings (but not command line parameters)

For the Buttonbar:

It is contained in a file named *.bar (default is "default.bar ). You may also move this file into the folder that you can access only. Then you can change the button bar by Configuration->Change Buttonbar: and clicking on the ">>" button and browsing to the new buttonbar. Or you alter the entry in your wincmd.ini

Code: Select all

[Buttonbar]
Buttonbar="path\to\Buttonbar\DEFAULT.BAR

BTW: Even if your system is well protected it is not recommended to save your FTP (or any other) password on the system. As soon as somebody gets Administrator rights he will be able to access all files on the PC. So your password will not be very save.
