Dennis Q. Wilson
Here's an odd thing. "Dennis" is the "Registered To" name of my
Windows XP computer, while the "Full Computer Name" is "Computer 99."
Until today, there was always a folder in Documents and Settings called
"Dennis" that contained all my, well, documents and settings. Today,
however, my customizations are all gone, reverted to the defaults, and
the same goes for the contents of my desktop.
The "Dennis" folder containing that info is still in Documents and
Settings, but now there's also a new folder called "Denns.Computer99"
(Dennis minus the "i"), which is presumably where my PC is now getting
its user data.
Does anyone have any idea what could have caused the switch? Tthere
are no references to "Denns.Computer99" in the registry. And how can I
get the operating system pointed back at the correct ("Dennis") folder?
Thanks to anyone who can give me a little insight.
