I have no way to be certain what you're on about so more information would
be appreciated but for now try these:

How to copy data from a corrupted user profile to a new profile:

Chances are, with what you're saying, you're using a new profile now because
the old one is corrupted. (Or, in 9x/ME because you didn't or did type a
password and didn't or did this time you logged on thus the desktops may
appear different.)

This might be important too:

As I was saying before my keyboard decided to send the email when I was
really trying to bring up my clipboard manager...
