How To Programmatically Switch Users In Win7
Sep 11, 2010
Lets say I am currently logged into my desktop as two users, One to the local machine and the other to a domain. Each has its own desktop. Each desktop has its own set of icons. I want to essentially hotkey switch users in such a way that my experience is that I end up on the other desktop without having to re-enter my passwords or perform any clicks. In other words. I am on desktop one. I hit lets say "ctrl-Alt-S" and I end up on the other desktop. Any security issues are mute as I am the owner of both login. I want to write this in vb.net and am assuming that I need to use API's.

I am attempting to programmatically create new users in our active directory. The only part I cannot get is setting a specific accountExpires time. I have tried a number of methods, but none of them have proven profitable.
Code:
Dim firstName As String = txtFirstName.Text
Dim lastName As String = txtLastName.Text
Dim fullName As String = firstName & " " & lastName

In VB.NET I used wscript.shell to add a shortcut to the desktop. I didn't realize it created the shortcut on the "All Users" desktop, which means I can't delete it. I don't have admin rights as this is my work computer, and asking for admin isn't an option. WScript.Shell has a createshortcut method but not a remove shortcut method! I've been googling for days with no luck. Windows XP Pro 2002, SP3.

I have an asp.net web app that uses forms-based authentication, a SqlMembershipProvider (using an encrypted password format), and a SqlRoleProvider. I need to know if it's possible to administer the users (create new users, assign them to roles, etc.) from a windows application - the powers that be don't want any administrative functionality in the web app itself.Here is the membership provider definition from web.config:
<membership defaultProvider="MyProvider">
<providers>
<add name="MyProvider"

1.I�d like to publish a free vb.net desktop application for the users to download and use meanwhile I�d like to collect usage information ex: user ip address, user�s registration information, used features, time spent� if the user allows the report to be sent back.
2.Also , in order for the user to be able to use the application, he�ll have to register it then, everytime, before the application loads, it gets verified online that it was registered, maybe validate the registration information or a valid user name and password, no critical personal information. The target of this step is for the application to be used exclusively by the registered user and maybe on his computer only.

Depending on what component is handling the print for you, some of them are not 64 bit ready (i.e. 32 bit only). To use them you must compile your application as 32 bit only. It will then run on the WOW platform that Win7 supplies.
You change this option on the PropertiesCompile screen. Press Advanced Compile Options and review Target CPU:

I mean not like windows xp which the number and signs are not in the same textbox, but like windows 7 which you can see the whole calculation before pressing equal, and i don't think that compute.datatable can do this because it's limited with the basic signs(+,-,/,*) and it doesn't include the other signs(like : sin,^,root,log), so how to make a calculator like windows 7 one?

I used VB6 to create an EXE file that uses MSComm1.The program runs OK in my XP computer and also in my Win7 computer (that has VBE installed).It would not run on my Vista laptop. I installed the VB runtime files (even though Microsoft says they are not compatible with Vista/Win7) but with no success.However, when I installed VBE on the laptop, it now runs the EXE quite happily.Does installing VBE also install a different set of runtime files?Is it posible to distribute my program to my friends who have Vista or Win 7, without them having to first install VBE?

I've tried using the P&D Wizard to specifiy loading it into the SysWOW64 folder but I'm not sure if I'm doing this correctly. I use the P&D Wizard then load everything into Inno for delivery but my customers who now have Win7 or Vista can't use my product.

I am making a windows service that will communicate with a local application through named pipes, and with a server through WCF webservice. So the application hosts the WCF service for the local application, and is a client for the webservices. When trying to run this as a service, the whole thing crashes. I have localized the problem to the "Session 0 Isolation" issue?
�If two-way interaction is required, use Windows Communication Foundation (WCF), .NET remoting, named pipes, or any other interprocess communication (IPC) mechanism (excluding window messages) to communicate across sessions. WCF and Remoting have a better security enforcement that will prompt the user (assuming UAC not shut-off) to elevate if needed. But I am not sure what they meen. As far as I know, i cannot create a windows service as WCF.

I have a vb.net program that is using a voice modem. Well, there is a someweird issues with the modem. (I am trying to work with them but they are kinda slow). Anyway, they only way I can resolve the issues with the modem is resarting the machine. I want to automate this. If I have problems with the modem, I want to reboot the machine and back into windows 7. How can I go about doing this? I am really concern about the login back into windows7. I want to keep the login screen up, but I want to bypass it if my program was the one to restart the machine.

I have looked through more old threads than I can count and I just cannot get any of the suggestions to work. I did a little poking around MSDN as well. I am trying to use the registry to enable AutoLogon on a Win7 machine through code. I can read the current value with no problem but I am running into security problems when I attempt to change AutoLogon to "1". This is what I have done so far.
