| | Can't logon to a user account I've created a new user account but can't log into it - I always get the message "The User Profile Service failed the logon. User Profile cannot be loaded". I can log into all other user accounts. I am wondering if this has anything to do with the fact that I removed a user and then deleted the users's folder and all the files in that folder including NTUSER.dat file. Is there something I need to do to be able to log into the new user account(s)? Doug |

| | Re: Can't logon to a user account I did what suggest - deleted the new user account (which had a different name to the one I deleted earlier) via Control Panel>User Accounts, restarted the machine and created a new user (again with a different name) but can't log into that account, same message as before. If I look at the Users folder in Explorer there is no folder the new user although the new user name appears when you look at the users via User Accounts!!

| | Re: Can't logon to a user account I have done everything suggested in this article but to no avail. After making all the changes per the article, I end up with the following settings: User Accounts: Admin (there are no other user accounts) User Profiles: Laptop\Admin Registry>......>ProfileList: S1-5-18 S1-5-19 S1-5-20 S1-5-21-3454285694-more numbers-numbers-1008 >ProfileImagePath C:\Users\Admin I rebooted the machine and then created a new user (dougc), restarted the machine and the User Accounts now shows dougc as another user but the User Profiles nor the Registry>ProfileList show any changes and I cannot log into this account ("The User Profile Service failed the logon. User Profile cannot be loaded"). Don't know what else I can do to log into a new user account. Looking at my desktop computer in Expolrer>Users, all the users in User Accounts show as well as Default user which is not in User Accounts. This Default user does not show on my laptop where I have the login problem. Perhaps this has something to do with the problem. Hope you can help.
