    Domain/User acount problems (sbs 2008 and Win.7)


    Hey all, thanks for your time.

    I have a quick question regarding user accounts. I seem to have a conflicting accounts that i don't really know how to fix...

    background:

    Domain: jonathanwes.local
    Computer name: MAUDIB
    Domain user name: Wesley
    Comp User Name: Wesley

    So i downloaded SBS 2008 so i could play around w/ some of the new features over 2003 (for 60 days). I only added my computer to the domain and have removed it from the domain (server expired).

    I used the user account wesley as my domain log in which is also the same as my computer log in. But ever since i removed myself from the domain, i seem to have a brand new "wesley" account (which seems like it was JUST created).

    If i go into C:\Users, it's lists two user accounts (Wesley and Wesley.MUADIB).
    I seem to be logging into the Wesley account when ALL my stuff is on the other account.

    I have tried just dragging and dropping, all the files onto the "new" account, but that only moved the files and not all of my settings.

    tldnr: I have two of the same user accounts after removing myself from the domain, and can only seem to log into one.

    -Thanks,

    **EDIT**
    I think my next step is to rename Wesley.MUADIB to Wesley (Replacing/deleting the "new" one)

    **EDIT II** I seem to be having problems messing with Wesley.MUADIB because it is locked.... Still working on it though.

    I figured it out.

    Because it was a new user the "Show hidden files" where off, so every time i was moving my old stuff back in, it wasn't copying the actually settings.

    Although, i still have stupid little check-mark boxes in the top left hand corner of EVERYTHING.
    any ideas why?

    **Solved again**
