The point of this article
I'm not sure I see the point of this article as it is currently. If it's meant to be a hand-holding way to get Windows users to their profile folder, there are too many options and technical terms. If not, I don't see how it differs from the current profile folder application-specific articles with the exception of the screenshots.--Np 14:38, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
- We can link to this article when we want to give Windows users details on finding the profile folder or searching for hidden files and folders when an application-specific article doesn't exist (Sunbird) or isn't appropriate, for example, the bookmarks article. Adding screenshots was an afterthought. Alice 21:09, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
- If this is for applications that don't have their own application-specific articles, why are there sections on Firefox, Thunderbird, and SeaMonkey? People reading Bookmarks are going to be on Firefox, maybe SeaMonkey. I think we can assume that anyone who's not on one of those two will be able to deal with whatever generic information we put in Profile folder.--Np 21:23, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
