I've noticed recently that the Documents and Settings folder in my XP
Home SP1 system has six subfolders: Administrator, Administrator
(Computer name), All Users, Jim, Local Service, and NetworkService. I am
the only user and have admin privileges. Many of the entries in these
subfolders are duplicates. How can I safely reduce the number of
subfolders/entries without affecting performance?
