On a multi-user system, or with a single user with multiple topics, you may set up a system so that the right user/vocabulary is selected from the start. This can be done by using the command line flags "/User" and "/Vocabulary".
If you have a shortcut on your desktop to start NaturallySpeaking, right-button-click, then on the "Target" line where it ends with "natspeak.exe" append (prior to the trailing quote mark) "/User <name>" and/or "/Vocabulary <name>" where <name> is the user or vocabulary name respectively. ("topic" can be used instead of "vocabulary")
Example (Release 10):
"C:\Program Files\Nuance\NaturallySpeaking10\
Program\natspeak.exe" /User Larry
Example (Release 9):
"C:\Program Files\Nuance\NaturallySpeaking9\
Program\natspeak.exe" /User Larry
Example (Release 7):
"C:\Program Files\ScanSoft\NaturallySpeaking\

Example (Release 6):
"C:\Program Files\Dragon\NaturallySpeaking\
Program\natspeak.exe" /User Larry
Example (Release 5):
