How do I access my old MS Word files

Question

I have Windows XP and I accidentally changed my account by changing the name and restoring the settings. I can't remember all the files I saved my stuff under, but the few I did, I had to go to Search and type in the name. How can I access ALL the files?

When I go to MS Word, and click Open, nothing appears. I guess that's cause I changed the account.

Any ideas? Best answer gets 10 pts!

Answer 1

Something like C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Documents

Answer 2

Actually the correct path is this:

C:\Documents and Settings\Username\My Documents

that's of course if they were originally place in your documents folder

Otherwise just search for *.doc files and try to remember the names from the results
