That can't be right.
What was the last version of Windows that wrote user profiles under C:\Windows?

I believe it was Windows 98 that last used c:\windows\profiles\%username% for the profile directory.

Yeah.
My point was, if you're going to ask for help, make sure the technical information you're providing is accurate.
I mean, it's easy enough to ignore this particular item, but then you have cause to legitimately wonder what else might be incorrect.

A bug hunt method probably not taught in skool though I don't believe in formal edumakation as it is unnecessary we all have texts and know how to read Anyway back on point another method to utilize to assist in finding bugs in our code which was surprisingly helpful to me was to sit for half an hour each evening after a day of work in the style of Zen Buddhism and low and behold on occasion it would occur to me that this or that particular day's design or implementation was incorrect and why The reason and purpose for the sitting was not engineering related but personal but it did have the surprising software benefit as described Hope this helps others not just this paltry programmer.

May I request that you please be so kind as to elaborate what you mean and why I am merely trying to be helpful and enjoy the pleasure of having contributed my paltry amount to the software community My understanding of "spam" is the sending of unsolicited advertising and repeated identical messages neither of which is present here I look forward to your reply In advance Thank you kindly.

While punctuation-free text and run-on sentences might make an impression in other circles, it doesn't here. At least not a good one.

I'm not sure I understand your post How is smoking related Would you please be so kind as to elaborate so that I may benefit Otherwise it is my belief experience and observation that Zen Buddhists are unlikely to smoke as we tend to take care of ourselves in a proper manner but thank you for the no doubt helpful suggestion.

If so, he's been sitting on the sock puppet for a while - nice anagram though!

Shouldn't that be "if I were you"?

Absolutely right!
The sentence is in the subjunctive mood because it's a hypothetical situation, so WERE is correct, and WAS is not. Well done!
I'd like to claim that was a test to see if anyone was paying attention, but no - it was a fine example of my inability to speak my native tongue correctly.

Don't worry... natives are usually the worst speakers of a language. If you hear the spanish average joe, it hurts the ears.

If you keep focussing on a problem, you sometimes keep going around in circles. It is widely known (thanks to formal education) that focussing on something else (or relaxing, or sleeping) sometimes helps.
Doesn't require anything zen.
