I think you can just drag to the public docs folder. C:>users>public>docs,music, pictures etc.

Instead of dragging the needed files to the Public Documents Folder, you can drag to the Documents folder of the specific administrator that you want to transfer the files to. The reason for this is because if you put a file in "Public Documents", it appears in all users' Documents library, posing a security issue.

You can access the Documents folder of the correct administrator at C:\Users\the_administrator\Documents , where "C" represents the drive that Windows is installed to, and "
the_administrator" represents the username of the correct administrator.
