    separating two accounts


    Barb I have one computer with two people signing into it. How do I completely separate the two accounts from one another without loosing anything for either person? Everything one person does the other person gets the same thing. This even happens when deleting programs. One account is signed into as a local account and the other is signed into as administrator.

    :)
