I'm trying to change some permissions on a Windows 98 computer.

If I load up System Policy Editor, I can only edit the default user or the user currently logged in. I have a user, lets call him Dave, that has everything disabled. Desktop icons hidden, no start menu except Log off, Programs, and Help options. The programs are restricted so he can only run a handful of programs.

But now I need to edit these restrictions. The person who originally set this up is not here anymore, so I'm not sure how to fix it. Deleting the user isn't an option. I do have Admin access on the computer to edit the registry and can run System Policy Editor as the Admin. The only way I know of undoing these options is directly from his desktop, but I can't do it since it's disabled.

Is there a way to bring up the options that are disabled from the Admin desktop?
