I have three accounts set up on my windows 7 machine: Sys_admin, Bil, and Myra. Sysadmin has sysadmin privileges, Bill and Myra do not. While i'm logged in as Bill, win7 seems to put some documents in sys_admin's documents library and some in my Bill documents library.

Should I just remove the Bill account and use the sysadmin account as it is quite a hassle to look in both libraries to see where things might be? Did I set up win 7 properly?

Another problem is that I keep gettting the French Canadian keyboard. Is there some way to permanently select the US keyboard and be done with it? The ? on the us keyboards is a É on the french keyboard - quite a hassle.

It seems like there are two main issues you are facing with your Windows 7 machine: 1. Document Placement Between User Accounts: - When you are logged in as Bill, you are seeing documents being placed in different libraries (Sysadmin's and Bill's libraries). This behavior can occur due to the configuration of the libraries in Windows 7. - To consolidate all documents to a single location for easier access, you have a couple of options: - Option 1: Use the Sysadmin account exclusively for better document management and administrative tasks. You can transfer or access all files from other user accounts in this centralized library. - Option 2: Modify the library settings for each account to ensure that documents are saved...

You can transfer or access all files from other user accounts in this centralized library. - Option 2: Modify the library settings for each account to ensure that documents are saved in the correct account's library by default. 2. Keyboard Layout Issue: - The issue with the French Canadian keyboard layout persisting despite wanting to use the US keyboard layout can be frustrating, especially if you are more accustomed to the US layout. - To permanently set the US keyboard layout, you can follow these steps: - Step 1: Go to the Control Panel in Windows 7. - Step 2: Select "Region and Language." - Step 3: In the "Keyboards and Languages" tab, click on "Change Keyboards." - Step 4: Add the US keyboard layout and set it as the default layout. - Step 5: Remove any other keyboard layouts that you do not need. - Step 6: Apply the changes and restart your computer for the settings to take effect. By following these steps, you can ensure that your documents are managed efficiently and your preferred keyboard layout is used consistently on your Windows 7 machine. If you require further assistance with these steps, feel free to ask!
