Removing an anchor

So I have "My Documents" anchored and have booted into multiple snapshots, all of which can naturally access "My Documents. What happens if I then go in an remove "My Documents" from the anchor list? Does it become a part of just the currently active snapshot or all of the snapshots?

Thanks,

I believe it only becomes part of the current snapshot.

 

Although I don't anchor data, it is logical that anchoring is only for the current snapshot.
If you remove the anchoring, it will become a part of the snapshot, where you did it, not in the other snapshots.
Snapshots are independent from eachother like partitions, but FDISR allows you to update (refresh) a snapshot from another snapshot.

(I moved all my data to another physical harddisk so there is nothing to anchor)

 

That's what I thought. The reason I asked is because I found out how to get around the permissions problem when doing a fresh install on a blank snapshot. I posted a message yesterday saying that when I attempted to do that, my fresh install created a new profile in Documents and Settings instead of using the anchored data. Turns out that it is because I have the two accounts on my PC password protected, and the two identically named accounts I created in the fresh install don't have passwords by default. I think that caused the problem. If I don't have the data anchored when I do the new install, set up identical accounts and passwords, then anchor the data, everything works as expected.
