My windows XP reverted itself to the original settings when I booted a few
days ago. I had to reset everything, including Outlook Express address
book, favorites, start menu items. Thank goodness for backups. It even had
reverted the wallpaper to the big green hill screen. When I started the
computer it asked me if I wanted the Tour of XP. Running Windows XP Pro
which was installed about 5 years ago.

Anyone have any clue why this would happen?
After I reinstalled the missing items everything seems to be working OK.

The original user account was probably damaged, so Windows generated a
new one. Run an error check on the hard drive; open My Computer,
right-click the C: drive, click Properties, click the Tools tab, click
"Check now...".
Do a Google search on "lost user account xp" and you'll find articles on
"How to Copy User Data to a New User Profile", etc.
