I delected owner account in user accounts. My files are now in the
administrator in user account. I can't get them to show up in new user
account. How can I get the two files to my user account one is desktop files
and other user files both in folders.

Hi Kerry,

Desktop is not a file, it's a folder that is created under each account,
as is the My Documents folder.

Log in to the Administrator account. Navigate to C:\Documents and
Settings\Administrator. From there you will see the Desktop and My
Documents folders. Open each one and select the files you want (use
Ctrl-left click for non-contiguous files) and press Ctrl-X to Cut.
Navigate to your folder and press Ctrl-V to Paste.

They are only shown in user accounts under administrator account in safe
mode, how can I get them to show up or put them back into my current files?

Exactly as I explained above.

They are not there, I can access them only while my computer is a safe mode
and they only show up in the administrator folder, they don't show up when my
computer is operated in regular mode

You can move them in Safe Mode the same way as I suggested above. I
would COPY whatever you have in the Administrator account to your new
account locations (Desktop & My Documents), then VERIFY you can access
them okay when you log in normally, then DELETE them from the
Administrator location in Safe Mode (if that's the only way you can see
them).
