    Greetings all,
    Just a quick stupid question, I am running WINDOWX XP HOME and have 5 useres added.
    QUESTION: If i delete one of the users, what happens to all of their desktop information??? ie.. documents folder, picture folder, music and what about all the files and folders that are sitting on the desktop? one last thing, what happens to all the temp internet files and history? does all this just disapear??

    Any help would be great

    When you choose to delete a user profile Windows will ask if you want to save the files to the desktop. If yes, the folder saved will then be placed on the administrators desktop. From there you can place it in the shared folder. Only the files from the deleted profile will be altered.

    As for the temp files, they are deleted.
