I'm using Windows XP home edition.

Do I have to have a user account?

It would actually be easuer for me to have everything in C:\Documents and
Settings\All Users\Documents

Hi,

Yes, you do need to have a user account.

Yes. But you already know that.

If the issue is the placement of your documents you can feel free to move
these to anywhere you like. Right click the "My Documents"-folder on your
desktop, press the "Move"-button to select where you'd like to keep them
(C:\docs if you like. I like to keep mine on a network server), answer yes
when Windows asks if you wish to move all your files and then tell uncle Bob
that André says hi.
