QuestionWindows XP strange behavior [modified] [SOLVED but...] Pin

Hello all,

* A windows XP computer has:
1. Lost the desktop wallpaper.
2. Lost the contents of the desktop.
3. Changed the title bar height.
4. Changed the default colours. i.e. the selection in the start menu is now gray and not blue, menues are darker and old fashioned, dialog backgrounds are darker (like the old win95 days).
5. Microsoft Security Essentials has not started at the beginning automatically.
6. The quick launch bar has also disappeared and when I try to make it appear again, it tells me: "Impossible to create taskbar".


* I have:
1. Started a complete scan with Microsoft Security Essentials.


* Extra information:
When I installed that computer several time ago, I used a username and now there is another user that uses that computer, so I changed the original user name for the second user... and with the information that I have today I must say that "without touching anything" (stop laughing please) all those things have happened...

Now every single folder that had relation to the user seems to be lost there... Quick launch doesn't work, desktop contents are not visible, start menu contents have been lost, sizes, fonts and colors have been broken...

* Question:
What could have happened?


* SOLUTION APPLIED:
- Copied the user profile...
- Removed the user from the system.
- Created a new user.
- Restored the data.
- It works... Unsure | :~


Any idea?

Thank you in advance!
