Does anyone know what the NTUSER.DAT file is? There is a NTUSER.DAT file in my documents and settings under a file with my ex boyfriends name. Of course he used to have files on this computer 1 year ago but the file has a modified date of last week.

Thanks

NTUSER.DAT

NTUSER.DAT is a windows registry file. this link will educate you on it:

http://www.easydesksoftware.com/regfiles.htm

 

The NTUSER dat file is actually one of your Registry files. Unlike the other Registry files, NTUSER.DAT is stored in your personal Documents and Settings folder and contains the entire contents of the HKEY_LOCAL_USER branch of the Registry. You can’t delete it because it’s in use and protected, and you wouldn’t want to because otherwise you’ll mess up your whole computer! It will grow as you install more software that creates keys and sub keys in this branch of the Registry, and so is perfectly normal. To summarise: leave NTUSER.DAT alone.
