I have had a few new computers over the past four years. I have
upgraded from Win2000 to WinXP. I believe I have copied the datafiles
from one computer to the next, but may not have done so properly.
I am now running a Gateway desktop and notice the following anomaly,
or what I think is an anomaly, in the foder and file structure when I
look at it in Win Explorer.
I have a folder titled "Documents and Settings" in which there are
five subfolders for "All Users," "Default User," "Local Service,"
"Network Service" and "Owner."
The "Owner" subfolder has a further subfolder for "My Docments" which
appears to contain all of the data files that I want to use or need.
In the folder tree there is another "My Documents" folder (at the same
level as the "Documents and Settings" folder) which has data files
that include older versions of some of my data and additional filders
that I have purged from the "Owner" version of "My Documents."
Questions: Can I safely delete this older "My Documents" folder and
how do you think it wound up on my hard drive?
