I want to delete a "User profile" containing some windows system i

[Erik]

I'm running XP Professional. I want to delete the following folder in
C:\Documents and Settings\Erik Peters. However, when I try to do so I get
the following warning, "Erik Peters is a Windows system folder and is
required for Windows to run properly. It cannot be deleted.

I already have a separate Administrator, Default User, All Users and Peters
folders already under C:\Documents and Settings\. There isn't a user profile
under Erik Peters and there has never been one. However, when I log in as
the Admin and access My Documents from the Start Menu I am directed to the My
Documents folder under Erik Peters versus Peters Admin's Documents. Opening
the Peters Admin's Documents directly routes me back to C:\Documents and
Settings\Erik Peters\My Documents. There are some (not many) recent files
under the My Recent Documents of the Erik Peters folder.

I believe the problem started a long time ago I was just using one user
account for everything. At the time, somehow I managed to rename an
administration folder to my name (because I wanted to). Later I found out
about user profiles and then created a Peters account and renamed the
original user account as the Peter's Admin account. Now I have this Erik
Peters folder that I don't want, can't delete, can't rename and is somehow
linked to my Peter's Admin account.

Is this an issue I just need live with (messy admin account) of does anyone
have tips for fixing my mess?

Thanks,

Erik Peters

Be careful here. If you renamed an account the original name still appears
in the Documents & Settings folder, that does not get renamed. So unless you
are 110% sure of what you are doing STOP.
