Hi,
A week ago I installed Windows-XP Pro on my computer.
After working afew days as Administrator, I decided to set up
accounts.
The first new account I created was thaof of a friend, Ben Arps, who
was installled as an administrator.
(I supposed the computer could have more than one administrator).
The other accounts were guest accounts for family members.
(Ben has to have access to the computer in case I die.)
To my surprise, my own account in my name (Rob van Albada)
disappeared.
I could only log on as Ben Arps or as a guest.
Therefore deleted the account 'Ben Arps' and set up a new
administrator account under my own name.
But when I now log in, the desktop is still Ben Arps' desktop. Though
Rob van Albada is Administrator and owner of the account, maps are
still called Documents and Settings\Ben Arps\Etcetera
The maps Documents and Settings\Administrator and Documents and
Settings\Rob van Albada are not used.
How do I correct this?
I tried using the Wizard Documents and Settings but this does not
help.
Kind regards,
Rob van Albada, Amsterdam.
