Running Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional
The Accessibility Wizard also offers the following administrative settings:
- You can have StickyKeys, FilterKeys, ToggleKeys, and high-contrast display turn off automatically whenever the computer has been idle for a period of time that you specify (five minutes, by default).
- You can make your accessibility settings apply automatically to any new profiles (user accounts) created on your system. (You must be logged on as a member of the Administrators group to set this option.)
- You can save your accessibility settings in a file, and then use that file to set up another system with the same settings. (To set up another system, copy the file you create to the new system. Then simply launch the file in Windows Explorer to apply the settings.)
To avail yourself of any of these options, choose I Want To Set Administrative Options on the page shown in Figure 7-2.
Three additional administrative settings are provided only on the General tab of Accessibility Options in Control Panel:
- Give Warning Message When Turning A Feature On. Causes a warning message to appear whenever an accessibility feature is turned on or off.
- Make A Sound When Turning A Feature On Or Off. Causes the system to make a sound whenever an accessibility feature is turned on or off.
- Apply All Settings To Logon Desktop. Applies the current accessibility settings to the logon desktop—the screen that asks for your user name and password when you first start your computer. Choosing this option makes it possible for users who need the accessibility options to log on. (You must be logged on as a member of the Administrators group to set this option.)
