Moving files to another user on same computer.?

Question

I have set up another user on my computer for my daughter. I want to transfer her files from my account to hers. How can I do that?

Answer 1

If you don't have access to the other users area, move the files to the public folder, then logon as the other user and mpve them from the public folder to wherever you want with the profile.

Answer 2

copy and paste her documets pictures etc. into the folder shared documents and log off and log on to her account and copy and paste her stuff into her documents folder which is located in my computer or if you are simple just replace the shared folder with a jump drive if you have one and do the same

Answer 3

In network places or my documents you will have shared folders. They are marked like that. Put your files in there, and you can access them from her account. You can also take them out of there and put them on her desktop. Shared folders are great!

Answer 4

Click on "My Computer" and drill down to the current location of the files you want to move.  Then go back to "My Computer" and open a second window and drill down to your daughters user folder.  Put the two up side by side on the screen.  You can "click and drag" copies of the files from one folder to the other.

Answer 5

It depends on the kind of files you're referring to, of course, but there are several options including copy-and-paste and sharing.

Answer 6

My Copmuter -> Documents and Settings -> Click the user, and go to My Documents (this is also consider if the files you need are saved there and you give your daughters account temporary administrative privileges. It get's harder if she has specific program data that she needs transferred, like saved data from an anonymous program like a game or worksheet program. However, if it's just simple documents, then that's the best way to go else you'd have to look in Windows -> Program Files -> "Program Name" to find the data saves, or just by using your preference tools in the program used to find the saved path. Dont forget to also copy the book marks in your local browser if your daughter has been surfing as well. Firefox has an export option for this. IE, I think you have to find the path.
