On booting up recently, I got a message saying one of my Administrator settings was corrupt. W2k duly backed the whole Administrator folder to Administrator.bak and created a new Administrator folder, which it now loads on startup.

Consequently, I can't access any programs loaded under the old Administrator settings.

Is there a way to get my old settings back or retrieve them from Administrator.bak?

Really appreciate your help, thanks.
Phil

Administrator.bak - is it a file or folder? Can you get your old ntuser.dat?
