Hi Charles Right click on "My Computer" Left Click on "Explore" On the Explorer menu Click "Tools" Then Click "Folder options" Then Click the "View" tab Put the dot in Do not show hidden files and folders Take the tick out of Hide extension for known file types (better to see the true extension) Tick Hide protected operating system files.
See if this hides the folders. If not then Right Click on the start button, left click on explore. This will open up Explorer to show the documents and settings for the current logged in user. If that is not Charles.V6000 then the two folders can be deleted. Perhaps it would be better to rename them for a while. And also to click through them to see if there is anything important. Each user has a folder in Documents and settings which hold anything that is for that user only. If you log onto a domain it will create another set of folders with your log in name plus something to distinguish the type of login. In the office I can log into my laptop onto my Win2003 server and the user details in Documents and settings are phart.peterhartcomput If I log into the laptop without logging onto the domain the user details are phart. The temp file can definitely go as it will have only held temp files from installs or where programs have failed to delete them when the program has been exited. I hope this is the information you want.
