Where did oobe.xml go?

I have a Toshiba Satellite Laptop, just purchased, & wanted to delete all the trial software offers in the Welcome Center (Vista Home Premium).

I made a copy of oobe.xml for backup, & this backup file was listed, cyoobe.xml. I exited DOS & went back in. Both oobe.xml & cyoobe.xml had disappeared. Is there any way I can retrieve these files?

Please, help,

I think you can create these files by using notepad -the only condition these files must be placed in correct path.Want you edit something in oobe.xml? See this:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/185462-welcome-center-customize-manufacturer-information.html

I want to know what happened to files, oobe.xml & cyoobe.xml, & can the be retrieved? Why did they disappear, when I didn't delete them?

Can the oobe.xml file be downloaded?
