Logon To Another User Profile, Screen Size Changes

I have an anoying problem. When I logoff one User Profile and log back in
with another, the screen size changes. This is especially annoying because
my desktop icons move and must be dragged back to their desired position.
Any ideas?

See if this article applies:
"Display Resolution and Color Depth Settings Apply to All Users"

> Any ideas?


Try "ResolutionKeeper":

RE: Logon To Another User Profile, Screen Size Changes

I have a very similar problem. Both users on my system have the exact same
screen settings (resolution, color depth, etc).

My system has three monitors attached. Do you have a dual or triple monitor
system?
