Documents and Settings

Why are the permissions set improperly on the Documents and Setting shortcut
and sub directories and where do those shortcuts actually go?

Re: Documents and Settings

as has been said numerous times, the origional Doc and Settings folder is now a legacy folder for compatibility no longer used.

check under USERS further down the tree.

Re: Documents and Settings

Why have you again changed things between different versions of Windows. We'd
all just got used to My Documents / My Computer (and amended our core
back-office systems/programs with that in mind) etc then you go and change
it.. I struggle with why this has changed as i can see no benefit.

We all want a new OS but banal elements such as this should surely have been
left alone?? Who decides these things and doesn't wonder about the knock-on
impact....? I despair guys..
