Windows XP Pro: How to combine user accounts
assuming that you own both the accounts, it could be easy.
make sure that one of the accounts has administrator privileges and this should be the surviving account...go to document and settings folder, find the other account folder...and then copy the contents of the following folders: desktop, favorites, account owner's documents and all other folders you have created to the corresponding folders in your account under the documents and settings folder. make sure you DO NOT over write any file as the over written file may just disappear forever. don't erase the "forsaken" account yet...let is stay for a month or two until you are sure that everything you need has been copied to your preffered account. hope that helps a bit. -- regards, dennis http://dennislazo.com/ E-mail address is unmonitored.
