Re: The User Profile Service failed the logon. User profile cannot be loaded.

Are you able to logon to the account? If you can, then you can delete the second SID key for that user account with .bak at the end if you like.

I just tried that again. It will not allow me to rename. There is still nothing on the right side except a default line.

Re: The User Profile Service failed the logon. User profile cannot be loaded.

Can you post a screenshot of this reg entry for me to take a look at? It may help determine what may be wrong with it.

Where you able to logon to the account after doing the System Restore?

Thank you,
Shawn

I have never posted a screen shot. Will you walk me through? I have been able to logon through both the Admin. Account and my husband's acct. My acct is still locked out.

This tutorial can help you with creating and posting a screenshot.

How to use the Snipping Tool in Vista


Are you still able to create a new account? When you looked at the C:\Users location, did you still have a folder with your user account name? If both of these are true, then you can create a new account for yourself, then copy the contents in the old C:\Users\(user name) folder to your new C:\Users\(user name) folder. Afterwards, you can delete the old account. If you need to, you may be able to do it from within Safe Mode.

Safe Mode

Hope this helps,

Cool Re: The User Profile Service failed the logon. User profile cannot be loaded.

My issue, at step five in folder "Profilelist" I have three folders "S-1-5-18" "S-1-5-19" & "S-1-5-20". There are no folders with long stings of numbers and nothing with a .bak extension, any suggestions?

Any help appreciated

All the Best
