Solve : Temporary Profile? |
Answer» <html><body><p>Today when I logged onto my computer and clicked on my account, I am <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/taken-659096" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about TAKEN">TAKEN</a> to a completly new account as if the computer has reverted back to its original settings. All my settings, documents, pictures, programs, ect, are not there. After restarting I got this message: "Windows cannot find the local profile and is logging on with a temporary profile. Changes you <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/make-249948" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about MAKE">MAKE</a> on this profile will be lost once you log off." <br/><br/>Last <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/night-343929" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about NIGHT">NIGHT</a> my account was fine. All my documents were there, everything was normal. I did not try to delete my account or mess around with anything I do not normally touch (I used the Internet, I created a Word document, that's about it). I have <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/tried-7272297" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about TRIED">TRIED</a> restarting in "safe mode" and logging in as Admin and creating a new account, then restarting again. This did not work and again I am using a temp profile. <br/><br/>I know very little of computers, save for basics. Internet. Word. iTunes. I am on a laptop and have only the 1 account. What on earth can I do to get my old profile back up???When you logon to the temporary profile and go to the Documents & Settings folder in Windows <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/explorer-455219" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about EXPLORER">EXPLORER</a>, do you see your old profile?Create a new profile with administrator privileges and than copy all files and folders from old profile.<br/>Three days ago I had the same problem and I did fixed in the way I explained.<br/><br/>Cheers.Quote from: dr_iton on July 06, 2010, 11:46:09 AM</p><blockquote>Create a new profile with administrator privileges and than copy all files and folders from old profile.<br/>Three days ago I had the same problem and I did fixed in the way I explained.<br/><br/>Cheers.<br/></blockquote>That is certainly a reasonable solution - assuming he can see the original profile.</body></html> | |
