I had to reinstall Windows XP, but instead of
selecting "upgrade" I chose "Install." Big mistake!
In the reinstallation process, I create two user accounts
(thinking that the prior two user accounts had been
deleted as part of the reinstall process).
When the reinstall was completed, I discovered that the
two new user accounts could not access the previously
install programs (MS Office, Norton Anti-virus, Outlook,
etc). However, the programs are still on the computer.
I then discovered that the two original user accounts
still existed. Here is my question: How can I get these
two original user accounts to appear back on the user
account list at startup? My goal is to delete the two new
user accounts that were mistakenly created during the
reinstall and to be once again be able to use the former
user accounts by getting them to appear in the user login
screen.
NOTE: It's almost as if there is a wall, with the
original user settings and programs on one side, and the
new settings on the other. I can see everything from all
user accounts, old and new, in the folder list.
