So the only files I need to worry about will be under documents and setting? All other files created by the past users will still be located in whatever directory they were saved in?
They will be under documents and setting in whichever folder they were saved in. Think of it as a filing cabinet. Each folder would be labelled, and in each folder it would contain the files, if there are any.
For example you go to
C:\Documents and settings\User1
Now under that User1 folder there will be things like:
Desktop
Downloads
Favourites
My pictures
The files will be wherever the user(s) saved the files to.
Only you (or your users) know where all the files would be saved. Some people dump files directly on their C:\ drive, or even C:\(folder name).
If you want to do a specific search for files you could do this:
Click on the start orb, and type in Search in the search box. Click on the searches button (so it's easier to manage).
Now on the top right corner of the searches window you can start searching for specific names/or files.
For example if you want to find documents, or excel files you would type in:
*.doc
or
*.xls
The asterisk (*) and period after it (.) means they are looking for ALL files with an extension of .doc or .xls
You can do it for any type of file (ex):
*.jpg
*.exe
*.bmp
Edit: Or you can just do a simple name searches for example:
July (this would look for all files with the name of July in it)
