Hi,
How can I change the USERPROFILE variable that WinXP uses for a user.
The problem that I am running into is that after I took out my laptop's
drive to quickly back it up, WinXP has decided to use
"myaccountname.computername" as the USERPROFILE variable i.e. it
decides to create and use this account as I try to login into my
account. This creates all sorts of problems for me since it does not
use my old settings, my documents etc...
I need to set the USERPROFILE variable so that WinXP can use my old -
"C:\Documents & Settings\myaccountname" instead of creating and using
the new folder "C:\Documents and Settings\myaccountname.computername".
How do I do this?
Thanks - Ted
