I have 2 administrator user accounts that use explorer shell. I also have 2
user accounts that use custom shell. Does anyone know of a way to set this in
TD. Currently, I'm doing it as a post-build process and it's a pain in the
butt.

Any help is appreciated.

KM,

I want to set up unique user shells from TD, but each user needs to be
logged on in order to set it's HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\Shell key.

Tim,

Why not set up all the [..\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon],"Shell" values in TD Extra Registry section?

See this Sean's article on how to do that:
