Hello and thanks for the response.
I was in the "Active Directory Users and Computers" section and
right-clicked and deleted a user account. This caused the files on the
account to be deleted (I assume, because they are not accessable
anymore...)
No, and by now (from your other reply to me) you have
found those files.
I need to restore the user and all the files. From what I gather, I need
to
do a Auth Restore.......but I don't know how and the wording is just over
my
head.
No, Auth Restore would only get the "account" back, not
the files -- you may need that too, but usually for one user
it isn't worth the trouble.
Stop saying it is "over your head". It is merely not (yet)
within your experience.
Both Helplessness and Self-Reliance are learned attributes that
can be developed with practice. <grin>
We'll help with the latter, but you are on your own if you seek
the former <BIG GRIN>

Hello Pi,
What have you deleted, the user account, the user profile or both?
Only the account:
Create a new account, give the account the needed rights for the profile
folder, configure the user properties to use the old profile, thats it.
Only the profile folder:
If you have deleted the profile folder you need some third party software
to restore the files and folders:

http://www.recovermyfiles.com/
Most are trials, but enough to help for a short time or search in google
for Data recovery.
Folder at the workstation:
And if their is data at the workstation under the old account, just log
in
as local admin and copy everything you need to usb or network folder etc.
Best regards

Hello and thanks in advance for any help that can be provided.
I accidently erased a user profile that is still active at our
satellite office. This of course erased all the documents/files she
had saved to the profile and her local computer. I have read through
the authoritative restore section, however I can't really understand
it. I am not an IT/systems person, and some of the jargon loses me.
I would really, really appreciate it if anyone could tell me how to
restore the delted user in steps so simple, even a slow person like
myself could understand. If I can't restore the user and files, I am
up a creek without a paddle; so any help is sincerely appreciated.
Thank you. (I believe I am using Microsoft Server 2003 Web Edition)
