Re: Win XP FAX SERVICE MISSING CONTACTS

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

I have an enduser who was able to fax and use her contacts, and then
mysteriously her contacts are gone and a shared folder seems to be there. I
think that someone else logged into her machine, creating a new situation
with more than one user profile.

Can anyone help with this?
