I've had my Windows 8 computer for several months... it's been working really well, absolutely no problems.
But today... when I turned on my computer... I signed into my account like always (the only admin account on the computer)... and it keeps signing me into a temporary profile instead.
A balloon pops up in the corner, telling me it's a temporary account and to try again later or something.
I restarted the computer about five times... but still... it takes me to a temporary account, rather than my real account.
Please help.

Solution
Try booting into safe mode and running system restore to some date preceding the problem.

This thread seems to have some good information. If it doesn't help, it might eliminate some possibilities.
