My computer would not allow me to delete 2 files shown under my user account
in computer. C:\users\walt. The name of the 2 files are ntuser.dat.LOG1 &
ntuser.dat.LOG2. I have no idea how these files got on my computer. I guess
my computer put them there. Anybody have any ides?

They are system files, in use, and cannot be deleted. If you want details
Google is your friend.

WHY do you want to delete those!??

Have you a CLUE what "ntuser.dat" is?

Save yourself - and EVERYONE HERE - a lot of time and stop looking at
anything you are clueless about.

You are starting to be a real annoyance.

Damn. Did someone **** in your cornflakes? The guy asked a simple
question. Maybe you need to chill out and get laid.

I had hidden folders set as show. I have an encryption program which
decrypts to a hidden folder. I had forgot that I had changed it to show
hidden folders. And Bill Yanaire can kiss my ass.

Be careful what you wish for - he may take you up up on that!

Since no one actually answered your question. Do NOT delete them. The
Ntuser.dat file is your HKCU registry and these are log files associate with
that.

Sorry. I am not in to your type of fetishes. Aren't you the one seen
coming out of a barn late last Thursday evening with your pants around your
ankles?

He may have been... because he was finished with you.
But YOU stayed in there with the pony...
