I recently upgraded a friends windows ME to xp. She is now saying she can t
find some of her files I think some txt files or such. The upgrade shouldn t
have deleted any files I hope.Could it have ust moved them or did it change
them or even delete them?Please respond
 
Try my computer,search,type in txt files,or the name or type of the
file(s),then
in results,click on"search for all files of this type".
 
Windows 9x/ME probabily had a standard "My Documents" folder. Since XP is a
multi-user system, it should now be in "C:\Document and Settings", under a
specific USER name.

This shows the importance of backing up all important files before doing any
upgrades.

Try using the Search facility available on the start menu. Good luck.
