Re: accounts

Each user has their own desktop, so unless you put shortcuts on the All
Users desktop that's pretty much normal. Do you mean, in regard to the "My
Pictures" folder, that the entire folder is gone or just the contents?
Again, if just the contents, this is normal as user profiles isolate one
users' files from another users' files.
