The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

How to rename user accounts or transfer files between user accounts?

Asked by ericuy in Peer to Peer, Windows XP Operating System, Windows NT Networking

Tags: Microsoft, Windows, XP

I configured my desktop with a user account with my first and lastname. My new laptop is now configured by the computershop with only my first name as the user account. As a result my peer-to-peer network does not work any longer. So, i first renamed my C:\Documents and Settings\firstname lastname to C:\Documents and Settings\firstname but that did not work. Then I tried creating a new account with only my first name, that came out as C:\Documents and Settings\firstname.computername instead. This account allows me to network but only in one direction (desktop to laptop).

So, now I have two accounts that do not work well; how can I best get out of this mess? If I need to transfer my files between accounts, please give some hints as well, because Business Contact Manager stopped working when I did that.

How can I set this straight?
