Copy Admin Account to Standard Account

Vista Home Premium.

I would like to copy all of the settings from my Admin User Account to a
Standard User Account. How do I do that?

Not too sure if this can be done, but perhaps a workaround? (On the
assumption that the Standard Account you mention is newly created, and
not yet used).

Login to the Admin level account, and create a new (password protected)
Admin level account. Then change the original Admin account that you
logged in with to Standard User.

Will that do it for you?

It will do it for me if it works. I'll let you know. Thanks.

When creating a new account create two new admin accounts. It's always good
to have two admin accounts in case one gets corrupted.

I tried it and as a result I lost my internet connection and after screwing
around for 4 hours I finally got it back.
I was trying to do the "right thing" by using a Standard Account instead of
an Admin Account. I should have followed my own advice..."If it ain't broken
don't fix it".
