I have just completed an XP Home installation as well moving files &
settings over newtork from my wife's previous Win98SE machine. This all
went well, but I have found a problem that I probably caused. (maybe by
renaming the users after initial installation?)
I now have two log-ons - One for my wife and one for me - Idea was for me to
be the administrator so she would be more secure on-line. I now have her
desktop populated with all her links and have her programs installed.
Everything works, but there is a small problem.
If I right click on My Documents (or My Music or My Pictures) on HER
desktop, the path is to MY "My Documents" folder in Documents & Settings.
The reverse is true is I log on - all links are to HER folders.
I thought I would as administrator, be able to rename these folders, but it
would not let me.
What I would like to do, is gain access to all folders and then rename them
properly and if neccessary, repopulate them with the correct files.
I could probably just rename the users, but if I did that, the wrong desktop
would come up. I tried making us both administrators but still could not
alter the files.
Any suggestions?
