Deleted a Profile, has XP lost all the files ?

Expand Post »
A relitive was told to delete his corrupt xp profile, he was not told to back up first,,, he says he can not find any of the digital pics he had saved under his old profile, so, has xp just deleted his profles association with the files or deleted the files too, are the files he can not find, gone forever? or are they just hidden somewhere, as he didn't see any warning about files being deleted.
Thanks for any help....Mike

look in documents and settings and see if the old username is there... you;ll find the stuff in that folder, however if it was removed then you wont get it back sorry

If you can't find them as suggested, this program should help you recover them:
