Hi I'm trying to un-clutter my XP a little. In windows explorer I see users listed as... "All Users", "Default User", and (me) "My Name". I understand how the "All Users" is needed. Of course I want to keep my own account, "My Name". Is it ok to delete the "Default User"? Default user doesn't seem to be needed, all its folders are empty. I want to delete it, can I do so without causing any sort of programming errors?
