On the Programs page you can specify which programs are available on the stations that belong to the profile. You can deactivate programs that you do not want to allow users to execute. Deactivated programs are not available to users. For example, if you deactivate the Toolbox, the CD Control Center (rather than the Toolbox) opens when the profile member double-clicks the desktop shortcut. In earlier Virtual CD versions, programs could not be activated or deactivated individually. This feature is fully operational only on clients running Virtual CD v9 or later. For clients running an earlier version, the following applies: If any item within a given group is deactivated, the entire group is deactivated.
The programs are grouped according to function. You can grant or deny permission to run the following programs:
| • | Administration. Activates access to administrative tools. You can grant or deny permission to run each of the programs under "Administration" individually: |

*NMS is available in v7 (7.2), but not in v8. Version 7 supports v8 stations as well, which is why these settings are identical.
|
Stations in v5 cannot be assigned profiles. These stations support only controls that are available directly in NMS Administration, such as inserting virtual CDs. |
