I have Restricted User account for my friend on home computer. He tried to
connect USB drive to copy photos but system did not allow him to install
device.

How can I allow restricted users use USB drives in Windows?

Michael,

Thank you for the answer.
But I am interested in case when user comes with NEW USB drive (with photos
for example) and I am away and can't install new device.

My question is: how can I change Windows standard security settings to allow
Restricted User account to install NEW USB drives in the system?
 
Power users can install programs and I don't want this guy can do it. In
other words I want to assign him permissions like Restricted User except for
installing new USB drives.

I guess this is registry manual editing operation which couldn't be done via
standard "windows" interface?
