Re: [XP Home] User Accounts OK, now more info:
AllUsers and DefaultUser are special folders. AllUsers has settings that apply to, yes, all users. DefaultUser has settings that are used to initialize a new profile, when the directory is created.
The 'Owner' directory corresponds to the 'Owner' username which I think is either a standard XP Home thing, or something put there by your computer vendor.
The extra Adminstrator directory is curious. It may be some artifact of the maufacturing process. I'd try and figure out which of the two were actually used by the current Administrator account (but only out of curiosity).
I might consider deleting the 'other' admin directory once I knew which one it was, but you'd better be very sure you know what you're doing. Why do you want to do that, though? It's presumably not using enough disk space to matter.
You shouldn't delete anything else. |

Buffalo, NY | Thanks for the replies.
Dave,
Actually I don't need to delete anything. I am more curius as to why there are two administrator directories. The administrator only one has three files and was last modified more then a year ago. The administrator directory, with the numbers that follow, seems to be the main one with ten files and a current modification date.
