Re: Renaming user account _and_ document root

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



Just to note: I've even tried logging in using the original
administrator account (by switching off Fast User Switching), and I
still cannot access the "Paul Moloney" folder. The only account that
allows me to do that is the Paul Moloney account. Yet the other admin
folders can each be accessed through other accounts.
