I just recently posted the same question. In my case, I could not get
everything to transfer correctly.
But, try this. First create a Restore Point, just in case. Then log on
as administrator (for xp pro hit cntrl-alt-delete twice at the welcome
screen, type "administrator" for the user name , without the "'s). You
should be then be able to log in as the administrator.
Now try to rename and cut and paste, etc. as described before. Restart
and log in as usual. Check if the folder is the way you want it
(including the sub-folders,i.e, "my documents") and that documents, etc.
save to the new folder.
If this works for you, I may give it another try.
