Is there a way to disable the way XP uses the "C:\Documents and Settings\" for the desktop, start menu, my documents, etc? Like how Windows XP has "C:\My Documents\" and "C:\WINDOWS\desktop\". I'm the only one who uses my computer and it seems kind of pointless to have all these different folders for different users in "C:\Documents and Settings\". Right now there's 4 user folders; Administrator, All Users, Default User, and User.

Thanks

I'm fairly sure it would involve heavy registry editing, which isn't a good thing...............
