User Profiles

Harmon Koeltz

Hello-I'm running XP Home, SP2. When I go to user profiles, I find there are
two, both with the same computer name. The Administrator profile is 926kb,
type and status are both local. The Owner profile is 1.25 gig. This too is
local and local. The administrator profile has not been modified since Oct 6
but the owner profile seems to get modified daily or more often.
The 1.25 gig seems large to me. Do I have a problem? Suggestions? Any idea
why the sizes are so different?

Thanks

Harmon

You are likely logging in as owner. The username you see on the Welcome
screen or type in has nothing to do with the actual profile name. Look in
your "My Documents" and "Desktop" and the likes and I bet you will find
where the 1.25GB goes.
