XP Keep Per User Display Settings: allows each user on a Windows XP system (typically in a home / "fast user switching" configuration) to have separate display settings (e.g. resolution).
The Microsoft Windows XP development team has decided that all users sharing a Windows XP PC must have the same display settings -- same resolution, same color depth, same refresh rate.
This is especially annoying in home environments, where mom and dad typically do "serious things" that require higher screen resolutions, like balancing bank accounts, and kids are running games or multimedia apps that often assume 800x600 or 640x480.
If you add to the equation the very nice "Fast User Switching" feature, you end up with the kids' games being displayed in a very small area on the screen or the data in dad's spreadsheet being displayed with only 10 rows.
This is why this app was created - you need to run it in each user's account, that will save the display settings independently for each user, and restore it at login AND when switching among several active users.
