    "minec" user found in Windows 10 users folder


    Today as I was going to the process of cleaning my C drive, I came across this user named "minec" in my users folder. I did not create a user by that name. On opening the folder, I found the folders present in every user folder: "Documents" ,"Desktop" ,"Contacts" ,etc. These folders themselves do not contain much except shortcuts and one search in the "Searches" folder.

    I want to ask what is this folder about and if it is safe to delete it.

    Thanking in advance!

    :)

    Vista Ultimate - 'User' Folder Location

    No tried that.

    Can copy the entire folder to D; but Windows still points to C as the location. Can change personal folders location to a folder on D;, but this still leaves hidden files etc on C;. Thus meaning there are 2 Users folders. Have managed to change the Public folder location to D;, with some registry tweaks, but this doesnt seem to work for the entire folder.

    any more suggestions

    "minec" user found in Windows 10 users folder

    Current active users that are friends

    The other reason I suggested this is that users can add characters to their username that are not alphanumeric (e.g. user*). This confuses things somewhat when looking at the list.
