Documents and Settings

[Guest]

Under the Explore All Users list, I have Documents and Settings files with
subfiles(All Users, Mike, Carol). I also have Documents & Settings.000 with
subfiles (Administrator, All Users, Default Users, Owner). Seems like too
many unneccesary duplicate files. Can I correct this without deleting
necessary files.

For Documents and Settings.000 See this thread
