Files Moved, now Lost!!
« on: 21 January 2002, 20:45 »
Does anyone have any idea with the following?

Files were moved from a My documents folder of user A to user B

User B works on the files all day and then shutsdown.

Next morning, user B can no longer find the files.

Login in as Administrator on local machine makes no difference.

Operating System is W2K

Machine is joined to a domain, which is running W2K Server and Active Directory with Roming Profiles.

This is driving me fucking Mad, Windows sucks.

I figured MS would have this problem fixed by now!  We used to have a LOT of problems with corrupt user profiles and lost data/work.  Solution, do not store *anything* important under the user profile. Map a "U:" drive on a server for personal "User" data.  And backup, backup, backup.  Tell users you are not responsible for lost data stored in the user profile.  Send a letter bomb to MS.
Someone please remove this account. Thanks...
