Disable User Profiles
In last week's Windows 98 tip, we showed you how to enable user profiles so that multiple users can use different settings: wallpaper, desktop shortcuts, color schemes, and so on, on the same system.

For each user, open the Control Panel, double-click Users, then follow along to complete the Enable Multi-user Settings wizard. From now on, whenever you start Windows 98, you'll get a Welcome To Windows dialog box. To log on, type your user name and password, then click OK.

When you don't want to use user profiles anymore, you can simply disable them. Open the Control Panel and double-click Passwords. Select the User Profiles tab, select All Users Of This Computer Use The Same Preferences And Desktop Settings, then click OK. Click Yes to restart your system, and user profiles are officially disabled.
