How can I set visual effects options under the restricted account?

How can I set visual effects options under the restricted account? I cannot open this window...



without typing admin's password...



Even if I set what I need, It works only until logoff. How can I set it permanently?

Hello Howard, I believe the only way you can do this is by temporarily
assigning that user account with admin privileges. I have tried set it
before only to see it work only until logoff. I have only been able to
work around that by temporarily assigning that account with admin
privileges

Yeah yeah, workaround instead of solution again, recently I'm a little bit tired of Windows. What if I cannot have admin privileges on some computers? Maybe it can be done in registry directly. I'll try to find out under admin account and RegShot. Or do you have other idea?
