I took out the hard drive from my laptop to back it up to a hard drive
on my desktop PC. I had to change the ownership to be able to acces the
folders on the drive which I had put into a USB external box/enclosure.
When I put the drive back into my laptop after the backup, I run into
problems where Win XP Pro (SP2) does not use my old "user" folder but
decides to create and use a new "user" folder. The new folder it
creates and uses is "C:\Documents and Settings\users\user.pcname" where
it previously had used my "user folder" which was "C:\Documents and
Settings\users\user".
I have checked the ownership of the older "user folder" to make sure
that I have ownership of the folder are the files under it. I have
tried different things to get Win XP to use my older "user/home folder"
with no luck.
This problem means that my Outlook does not as previously, now I have
to register and startup my Outlook version, that my Firefox settings
don't work, my Quick Start settings don't work etc... HELP!!
