Basic and useful utility that allows an administrator or user to set up custom resolution settings, based on user, for the desktop upon login.
Carroll is a freeware screen resolution app and video tweak, developed by The SZ for Windows. It's pretty attractive.
The download has been tested by an editor here on a PC and a list of features has been compiled; see below. We've also created some screenshots of Carroll to illustrate the user interface and show the overall usage and features of this screen resolution program.
Set a different resolution for each user
Carroll is a free utility for graphics settings that allows you to set a different resolution for each user. After login, the screen resolution will be changed to the stored setting.
This can be accomplished with many types of video cards, including those from NVIDIA, AMD/ATI and Intel.
At first start, Carroll shows all available screen resolutions. Select the desired screen resolution and click ‘Change screen resolution and restore with every logon’.
Next time, Carroll changes the screen resolution automatically without displaying the user interface.
