After a HD crash and replacement, reinstalling XP Home and restoring from an
external drive I apparently made a number of poor selections the result of
which is a jumble of access denied files or actions.
How can I straighten out this mess?
There are three sets of files and two "users" I believe.
The three are:
Administrator
All Users
John Shiels
And the following folders appear on two or more of these entities in some
instances the folders are "empty" and in others some folders have entires in
two or more file sets.
The folders appearing one or more times are:
Cookies
Desktop (on Admin Desktop has a folder "Desktop"
Favorites
My Documents
Shared Documents
Start Menu (on all three)
User Data ( XP updates)
Windows (only on John Shiels)
My objective is to make sense without losing folders or moving them to a
location for which I will not have access. There is only one user- me.
Thank you
