| - | ====== Access profiles/directories of network accounts after domain removal ====== | ||
| - | This should only be done by graduating students! If you will be a returning | ||
| - | student and are away from campus, the IT department is unable to | ||
| - | remotely add your machine back to the domain. | ||
| - | After removing your computer from the Olin domain, you will find that your desktop and “My | ||
| - | Documents” folders have seemingly disappeared – they have not, you are using a different user profile | ||
| - | when you log onto your computer. | ||
| - | |||
| - | All of your old files will be located under various folders found in the | ||
| - | location: | ||
| - | “C:\Users\<username>” | ||
| - | (for example, if your login name was “local”, C:\Users\local)”) | ||
| - | |||
| - | Or | ||
| - | “C:\Users\<username>.MILKYWAY” | ||
| - | (for example, if your login name was “local”, “C:\Users\local.MILKYWAY”) | ||
| - | |||
| - | Some of these folders are protected system folders and will not show unless you enable them. | ||
| - | To enable them: | ||
| - | * Click on “Tools” | ||
| - | * Click on “Folder Options…” | ||
| - | * Click on the “View” tab | ||
| - | * Uncheck “Hide protected operating system files” and turn on “Show hidden files and folders | ||
