PROBLEM: I share our only pc with the family. The kid's
new SIMS 2 game requires that the user be an
adnministrator and I dont' want to make the kids account
that powerful.
QUESTION: How can I write a script /set permissions for a
user to have an administrators profile just for one
program?? Or create an adminstrators account to be only
able to run one program??
THANKS!
 
Make a SIMS2 User Group. Put the kids into both the user and SIMS2
groups. Use Group or Local Policy to adjust the permissions that the
SIMS2 Group is granted, modifying what you feel they do not need.
Alternately, you could do the same with a Sims 2 user account, using
Group or Local Policy to grant only what is needed.

Try setting the SIMS2 shortcut to RunAs Administrator. That way, only that
program shortcut will have admin rights and you won't have to muck around
with their accounts.
