I managed to solve 90% of the issue but it created new issues and I don't want to reconfigure the system. I prefer to find a solution. There is a lot of useless information on the net but I managed to find what I need except for one thing. I want complete control over the boot up and login. I...

I work in a call center, and when ever I log in at some point the computer shuts itself down or restarts. When it comes back up it goes into system repair. Could this have to do with my profile in the system? I am not very tech savvy and all IT had done is reimaged the computers. Something that...

Hi My friend called a few minutes ago and that he is getting the message, "User Profile Service Cannot be loaded". I'm going to go over there tomorrow morning and see if I can fix it, I'll probably start by trying to load into safe mode and set up a new user profile and run anti malware scans...

I am trying to move a user in a domain to a new PC. Both PC's are Windows 7 Pro. I tried Easy Transfer and the transfer was successful. However when I log on, I do not have the users desktop icons, background, or shortcuts. I am a bit confused because on the old PC the users profile shows as...

Ok, to start this off I'm going to provide some backstory into my problem. This is from a thread I created here about a month ago. Ok, so for a brief overview, every user account on my home computer has internet access but mine. I have Windows 7 (64 bit), my computer is a gateway, and I use...

When I restarted my computer after running a check of the hard drive, I got a message that read "C:\windows\system32\config\systemprofile\Desktop refers to a location that is unavailable." The desktop had reverted to a default appearance and all the icons on it except for the recycle bin were...

Hi: Looks like I'm not the only one to have had this problem, but since the posts seem a few years old, one would HOPE that Microsoft might have gotten the big hint and fixed this problem. I have Windows 7 professional. First, when setting up, there was a typo in the user name and the...

Bit if an odd one I'm hoping to get some help with... I'm running Win 7 Ultimate x64 and have been for some time now on this particular machine. I use remote desktop to access the machine from elsewhere and it's always worked fine up until recently (late March/Early April). There was a single...

Hi guys, I recently acquired a virus on my system which has made my user profile disappear (when clicking on Windows Explorer then C: and then finally 'Users' folder. All of the data is still on the drive as it is as full as it was before). I am running Windows 7 and got around this...

I just got a new i7 with windows 7 64 bit on it yesterday. Everything was slow, and I figured out why, but don't really understand why, or what I can do to keep it from happening in the future. Yesterday I attached it to an external NTFS drive that had a bunch of bad sectors, copied over...

Hi, Just installed the RC on my HP laptop a few days ago. I wanted to access my documents folder on my Vista partition, so I clicked through to "Continue to access this folder." Didn't think anything of it. Then, when I went to log back into Vista, I couldn't access my actual user profile. Every...
