I think my PC was attacked by my 19 month old this morning. He is just at the height to move the mouse and bash the keyboard.

I have come to use the PC and some profile settings and shortcuts no loger work.

I did also have a file move prompt on the screen when I logged in which I cancelled.

Unsure what has been moved, does Windows log such activity?

Many thanks.
 
Thanks.

Will have to specifically try to locate something which I know has been moved and try to backtrack I think.
 
It was "locked", on the Welcome screen... the thing is, I recently removed my user password as got fed up entering it - lol.

I remember why I set a password in the first place now, I was lured into a false sense of security.

Seems to be local user settings which have been changed, like appdata for example but I cannot see what.

Stupid Windows 8, no Shadow copy as such enabled by default... GRRR. That was rather usefull in Windows 7.
