I have three people that use my PC in my home. Is there a way to have one set of settings (including fonts, colors, etc.) that all three can share?
I find as I log into different users, the settings are not always the same.

You can use inireloc.exe from our addons page to set the location of the settings files to the same directory. Make sure you all have write rights there! The best solution would be to create a directory like c:\totalcmd and put the ini files there.

I guess the best way to share settings over more than one PC is to store all settings on a place where all users can access the settings (e.g. 'C:\ProgramData' folder or an NAS system). Optionally these settings can be set to be readonly (permissions should be set to readonly, only an admin user can them change them).
The next step is to define the user-specific settings. In order to achieve this make use of the RedirectSection ini setting. Every setting with shared settings must be redirected to the INI file(s) on the server.
Has anyone a better idea?
