My Windows XP Professional with SP2 Is Installed in C: Drive !

i was editing registry, Successfuly Moved.. My Document, Shared Document to D:

I also moved Shared Picture to Shared Document in D Drive & Shared Music & Shared Video to F: Drive.

But couldnt move my profile(Including the 'TEMP' folder) to My Document folder (Now in D: Drive)

this way

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders]

&

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders]

I edited The Envournment Variable to move the Temp Folder. (My Computer > Properties > System Properties > Advanced > Envournment Variable)

I lost My Shared Picture directory

Lots of problem Has Spawned; Evil or Very Mad

1) Cannot Use Alt + Ctrl + Del , It says Task Manager Has Been Disabled by your Administrator.

2) Cannot Enable System Restore (Every Thing got turned off after editing registry)

3) Cannot Access Windows Managment !

If U need More Info please Tell Me. Idea

Tried Reparing Using Windows XP CD But No Use Confused

I tried moving the Profile using User profile Section (Windows Managment)

But, It takes a lot of time to logIn (So Dumped the Idea)

the registry is very very dangerous place if u don't know what u are doing.

i think you don't know that if u right click your my documents on your desktop

you can specify a new Target directory.

lets say for example target is F:\My Documents

my pictures

my music

my whatever will automatically be created inside the target.

u then use regsnap to take a picture before and after

then u take that registry tweak and put it into your U.A.

Just before you decide to reformat your drive try and create another user acount and see if that resolves majority of your issues. Ive suggested this as you medled around with HKEY_CurrentUser key and not local machine which may create a new account without problems if it does then copy your files over and take advice from the previous posts - well take advice from the previous posts anyway.......
