Windows recreating old user account folder during software installs
Hi, I hope somebody can help.
I've created a new administrators account, and removed the old one, copying the user profile to the new account but changing the account name. Everything works fine, except now whenever I install a program, it recreates the previous user folder in C:\Users\(old username) to extract the installation files.
I'm wondering how I would go about changing the default directory to prevent this from happening, and whether there are any other problems similar to this that I might encounter?
Currently running Windows 7 Home Premium x64.
Many thanks,
Luke.
