In the Documents and Settings folder, I have four user sub-folders: Default
User folder, my own folder, and two old redundant user folders.

Can I remove the default user and the two redundant folders (and all the
sub-folders contained in them)?

Many thanks for advice.

You must not remove the DEFAULT user. You can remove the other profile
folders if the users are no longer present on the system. You have to
start to the Safe Mode to do so.
