User Documents and Settings

P

Peter McGuirk

I just upgraded to XP Home Edition from ME. I hoped to
have individual Document and Settings folders for each of
the Users, as I have on my other machine which came with
XP installed. Under ME there was only one user profile
and all Documents, Favorites, etc. went to the primary
user under XP. None of the other Users, created during
the upgrade, had individual Docs & Settings. I tried
deleting and re-creating but that didn't help. Can I
create the Docs & Settings manually and create shortcuts
under each profile to point to the User data? Even under
the primary User I have no Application Data folder. I
would like to create separate folders for Application
Data for Outlook, and some other programs. Help!

they won't until you log onto them, when the user files will be created.
