hey guys,
Need some help here, and mods, please help too if you can :)
Kind of desperate.

I accidentally deleted my own user profile in Win2K Pro, so now I have to log on as Admin.
When I checked the user profile (right click my computer -> properties -> user profiles tab),
There is a profile called "account unknown", which I think is my missing profile, looking from the 62 MB size. Is there anyway of recovering or accessing the unknown account so I can access some of my important files?

Thanks for your help

Marcel

did you actually delete your profile or just delete your user account?

If it's the latter, open up Documents and Settings on your C: drive and you should see your old profile.
If you did actually delete the profile and you haven't done any saving or anything, you can try an undelete program.
