Hello Lee,
From my experience, the registry keys, data and/or values should only point
to only one of the folder sets. Also something like 'Network Service.NT
AUTHORITY' came after 'Network Service'. With for the 'Network Service'
and the 'Network Service.NT AUTHORITY' for example, make sure you can view
all files and folders (system and hidden) in win explorer. In both these
similar folders you will see a file called 'NTUSER.DAT', try to make a copy
of this file from both the folders and attempt to paste it (in the same
folder). The folder(s) the system is using will deny the paste operation,
it's only true for this folder and with the L735.COMPUTER NAME, L735
folders. The other folder should paste 'Copy of NTUSER.DAT', the system is
not using this one.
To try it out, boot up regedit (and first back it up or make a restore
point,...), find all occurrences of 'Documents and Settings\NetworkService'.
My suspicion is the system is using 'Network Service.NT AUTHORITY', if this
is what you want to use so be it, leave the registry and delete the other
folder, if you want to use 'Network Service', then for each occurrence of
'Network Service.NT AUTHORITY' in the registry, delete the '.NT AUTHORITY'
part, and try not to miss an instance of it. Reboot, try the copy operation
above again if 'Documents and Settings\NetworkService' denies the paste
operation, then delete 'Network Service.NT AUTHORITY'. Like wise with your
user folder, and don't delete this folder unless you know your data is
recently backed up.
Generally do a registry search on all the special folders mentioned and do
not changed any settings at the root of the 'Documents and Settings'
folder, rather search for and make sure the 'Match whole string only' option
is not checked,
'Documents and Settings\Network Service'
'Documents and Settings\L735'.....etc
Also keep in mind, and this is from my experience, you may need to do the
same folder more than once, i.e. go through the registry to reset keys,
values and data. For some reason I had to do 'Network Service.NT AUTHORITY'
twice before it finally pointed back to 'Network Service'. One more thing
the 'L735' is an administrator right? You will need to be.
