New user accounts not saving user settings.

[Guest]

New created user accounts are not saving settings after 3 months of a new
fresh windows installation.

I asked the people that issued my copy of XP, they have no idea.

Any suggestions? I get the windows cannot access user profile because it is
corrupt or no rights for accessing such profile.

Thank you.

This is probably the reason: Insufficient access rights. Try this:
- Click Start / Run / cmd {OK}
- Type these commands:
cacls "c:\Documents and Settings" > c:\test.txt {Enter}
net user %UserName% >> c:\test.txt {Enter}
notepad c:\test.txt {Enter}
- Paste the contents of this file into your reply.
