Hiya
Could someone help me please by telling me what
the following folder holds.NTUSER DAT FILE 2,048kb. It
might sound a silly question but it has got me wondering
what it holds.
regards hookers

This information should be relevant to XP also:

This holds the User part of the Registry, each user has there own
Registry settings. You can view it contents automatically using
RegEdit and expand the HKEY_CURRENT_USER.
There is a NTUser.Dat.Log file as well which I believe is a
transaction log of some sort.
DO NOT edit these files directly as you can desctory all your
settings!
