There is more than one user on your computer even though
you are not aware of it. I am the only user on my
computer yet there are three users.

There is, of course, my account, the Default User and "All
Users."

Newer programs and games are "user" savvy and upon install
they ask, "Do you want to install to all users, admin,
etc," and you get to choose where to install.

On the older programs and games they just install wherever
they would normally install without regard to "users."

This does create a problem for xp.

I have pointed you in the right direction. Now maybe you
can figure it out. :-)
