Bloody update from 10 to latest version of 10 has screwed my settings.
In short its created a new user profile ie/ where i just has 'Mark' as 1 sole user on this lappie, i now had 'mark' and mark000.
First i knew was when outlook didnt download fresh mails that i know i have, and then i tried to open a word doc and course it can't find the right path.
Have refrained from lobbing it through the window - sure there's a joke in there, but can't be arsed to find it. Anyway....i found the culprit as being this faux new user, so inside that all my app data resides.
i could do with some advice...
what's the easiest way to handle this
a/ copy all app data back to my old profile and everything will sync/work as was?
b/ change paths for all app data to the new profile?
( obvs i have all the usual mail/word/excel progs to sort, but also other progs loaded which presumably may also need a redirect. I don't want to keep finding over the coming days/weeks that certain progs won't work properly or can access info/data due to this as that'll be a pain in the ass).
thoughts.....and no snarky comments about switching to apple, i'd rather buy a pen and paper and some stamps.

Re: Help! Windows 10 issue
weird, it now works as normal, albeit with this 'new' user/apps data folder added by the install.
