I run Vista 32 bit and have four seperate user accounts. One is the administrators account which I don't use and the other three are for me and my family.
Earlier today I was unable to access my account although the administrators account and the other two are still OK.
I tried following the instructions on a web site to delete my account and open another. It appeared to be successful and I can now access my new account but it is empty of documents etc and I cannot find any of my files.
I've looked in the C: drive and while there are two folders with my name on them they are both empty.
Is it possible that I have lost all my files? Surely they couldn't be deleted without the computer showing some indication of what it was doing as it would take a long while to delete them if I formatted the disk.
I have a good back up incase of disaster but I cannot believe the files have all gone.
Can you advise me if this is possible or where I should look for them.
