Default Multiple profiles

I have a laptop running Vista Home Premium that I use to connect to my
network at home but I also use my laptop at work. Is there a way to set up
multiple profiles so that I don't have to keep changing my settings?

For example:

At home I want printer A as my default and I wish to connect to my network
through wireless.

At work I want printer B as my default printer and I wish to disable my
wireless (corporate policy)

Hello,

I don't think there's an easy way to create a double-profile that has access
to the same user files.
You could make a new user account, called "Work" or something, and enable
access to your other profile's files and programs.

Greetings,
P. Di Stolfo

Default RE: Multiple profiles

yes i have three accounts in vista home premium and i don't want the same
settings in and access to the main profile. how can i create separate
profiles for standard accounts for changes that i don't want reflected in the
administrator account?
