When I joined a new domain the files contained in the My
Documents folder had disapeared, I looked within the
Documents and Settings folder and the folder for the login
name of the previous domain had disappeared. Could
somebody please help.

Thank you.
 
When you log into a computer locally (not the domain account), you are
logging into a different profile than if you are logging into the user
account on the domain.

Look in the Document and Settings folder and you will see 2 profiles for the
user, one will just have the user name and one will have the user name
followed by a period (.) and the domain name. Each profile will have its own
My Documents folder.
 
Thank you for your response but as I already mentioned I
looked in the Documents and settings folder and that login
account had disappeared. If you could think of another
solution.
Thanks anyway.
 
Did you log onto the PC as the Administrator? You will not have privledges
to the original folder unless you are logged on as an Admin.
 
Yes I logged on as Administrator, and still the folder in
documents and settings had disappeared.

Thanks for any help.
