Hello all,
In the Desktop Environment Tech Notes it says "By default, user profiles in Windows XP are stored in the \%systemroot%\Documents and Settings folder." I thought the %systemroot% on a default install of XP is C:\Windows but the location of the profiles on a default install is c:\documents and settings not c:\windows\documents and settings. I was just hoping to get some clarity on this.

Looks like I made a mistake there and should have typed %SystemDrive% instead... give me a couple of minutes to read it over. -

Must have been a gnome on the server trying to make me look bad by changing something so basic.
I apologize for any confusion I caused, I just uploaded a corrected version. Thanks for spotting!

Wow, quick reply on a Sunday. Thanks for clearing that up, I'm feeling a little intimidated by the detail of some of the practice test questions.
