| 462010 | 2006-06-10 05:27:00 | I just did a reinstall of windows (without formatting), and now all the documents settings have .WINDOWS after them in the name. (because the old ones were left there) I was wondering if it is possible to change the variables in %ALLUSERSPROFILE% and such to point to the old folder names (and then just remove the .WINDOWS in recovery console so it's the same folder) How would I do this?? |

| 462011 | 2006-06-10 05:39:00 | registry key at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList I'm assuming that changing that will do the trick. |

| 462012 | 2006-06-10 15:28:00 | Well that kinda worked, but everytime I restarted it would change a few back... So I reinstalled again. Now there is nothing wrong with it except a folder containing a copy of my old user account files which I cannot access nor delete :waughh: How to get rid of it??? |
