I was browsing my computer (HP Pavillion zv5001us, 4 yrs old) and came across
my user.dat files. I have five of them, the funny thing about it is that the
program associated with it is Intervideo WinDVD 4, which I do have. I have
never seen this and assumed it was incorrect. I tried to unassociate the
program with the .dat files. It didn't work becuase the file was in use, so
says the pop up message. I use a program that will delete files that are in
use upon reboot. I inadvertantly deleted the ntuser.dat which was about 8.5
MB. My computer still boots up just fine, but seems a little unstable. Is
there a way to repair or find that file again? If so, where does it go or
belong so my puter will be stable again. Also, concerning .dat files. Why
do I have 5 of them. Here they are: Administrator, All users, Default User,
Owner, and Me. Do they all need to be on there? Can I get rid of them
without harming the puter? Thanks.
