    Are you sure it is compatible with Windows 7?

    Compatibility Mode isn't flawless, so by the sounds of it, motupa, you've got to wait until it is upgraded to run on Windows 7.

    well i searched and am getting the idea that this disabling of the switch user button also happens when other people used it on vista xp so its not a malfunction of the software, but rather a function or what ever you call it of windows steady state, i just need a way to make it possible to keep the switch user option

    I'm bumping this post because I was looking into using SteadyState on Win7 in a Guest account and I found out that it still does not support Win7 up till this day...

    Anyone knows of a workaround or a free alternative (DeepFreeze isn't free)...and please don't mention Returnil (I know that)...
    They call me the mysterious one...
