Too many "Users"

As a result of a WinXP Pro crash and restore, reinstall, etc. etc. I now
have the following directories for Users in C:\Documents and Settings:

Administrator
Administrator.RIGA
All Users
All Users.WINDOWS
Maris V Lidaka Sr
Maris V Lidaka Sr.RIGA
Maris V. Lidaka Sr
MARISV~1~RIG

To the best of my knowledge, I am only using Administrator.RIGA and Maris V
Lidaka Sr.RIGA, and these are the only Users I can access through logging on
(excepting, of course, Guest).

Since I cannot access the other "User" accounts, can I just safely delete
them, or what else might I do?

Hi Mark,

As long as you know which user accounts are tied to the current
installation, you can safely delete the others.
