I copied my preferred User Profile (named "Steven") to the Default
User Profile so that all future users would have my preferred
customization. However, I notice now that when I look at the file
structure for any New User created or for the Default User, where I
should see "User Name's Documents" or "User Name's Music" or "User
Name's Pictures" (or ditto for "Default User") I actually see
"Steven's....." regardless of what the New User's name is or if I'm
looking at the Default User. Is there an easy way to revert to a
standard position ?
1) Did you COPY it manually or did you use the proper method through the
advanced tab of the system control panel? (Selecting that "Everyone" be
able to use the files/folders.)
2) Afterwards, you should go into the "Default User" profile and erase the
following:
C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\Application
Data\Identities\{SIDNUMBERDIRECTORY}
C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\USERNAME Documents
(If you install some other apps, netscape, etc - or if you have customized
some apps in a way you don't want default for all new users, you may have
more erasure to do.. Otherwise, that should cover the problem you are
seeing now.)
