  1. Users Folder is not visible


    I am trying to access the files in my user folder from my old computer's hard drive it's in an external case and it was using Windows 10 from another computer using Windows 11, but it is not visible. Under Users, I can only see default and public. Thoughts?

    :)

    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

  3. My 'Documents' folder is not visible in my user folder

    Thanks for taking the time to help

    I was attempting to dissociate my OneDrive 'Documents' folder from my local 'Documents' folder. I don't remember the steps that I took to do this, but it worked. However as a side effect, my local 'Documents' folder is no longer visible in my user folder.
    I have verified that the 'Hidden items' box is checked, and I can see other hidden items within my user directory. When I try to place an empty folder named 'Documents' in my user directory, a message pops up that says "This destination already contains a
    folder named '<%1 NULL:NameDest>'" and it asks if I'd like to merge the two folders. It shows the name of the previously existing folder, but it's some sort of cryptic text, and I can't highlight it to copy and paste it here. If I enter the folder through
    'Quick access', all of my files are still there, and the address still displays as 'C:\Users\Kyle\Documents'.

    Is there any way to get the folder to displays as it's supposed to? I've created a backup of its contents, so it won't be a problem if the process involves deleting them.

    Thanks again, Kyle

    Users Folder is not visible

    User accounts not visible in Windows login screen.

    Hi,

    I realize that you are unable to see the user accounts in the Windows login screen, let me assist you.

    This issue might happen if the user account is disabled, I suggest you to follow the below steps to check if the user accounts are disabled and try enabling them.


    • Press Windows key + X key and click on
      Computer Management.

    • Click on Local Users and Groups in the left pane.

    • Double click on Users option and check if the accounts are visible.

      (The user accounts with a downward arrow symbol on it are disabled accounts.)

    • Double click on the account that you want to enable.

    • In the General tab, uncheck the option
      Account is disabled.

    • Click on Apply and then Ok.

    • Restart the system and check if the issue is resolved.

    Hope the information helps. Kindly write back to us for further assistance on Windows. We will be happy to assist you.

    Thank you.
