| | Vista profile folder cannot be recreated??? I have a problem using vista home & bussiness. When I just delete a user profile folder at "C:\user\peter", the profile folder cannot be created next logon to peter. Vista said "windows cannot load the user profile, use tempory ...." I try that delete the peter account and then recreate that, the profile folder can be created again. But I don't want that solution. The Windows XP can be just delete the profile in "C:\Documents and Settings\", the new profile will be recreated after next login. The Vista cannot do that. I would like to do the same as the Windows XP can in Vista. Can anyone help me? Thanks! |

| | Re: Vista profile folder cannot be recreated??? Hi Steven, No can do. Once a user profile is created, the name is reserved. Only deleting and recreating the account will create the new folder structure. Choose a different name. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org My thoughts http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com "steven" <steven@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:5C4EC3E2-0010-43F6-AC3A-92E1BAB6C31E@xxxxxx Quote: >I have a problem using vista home & bussiness. > > When I just delete a user profile folder at "C:\user\peter", the profile > folder cannot be created next logon to peter.

| | Re: Vista profile folder cannot be recreated??? So the Vista cannot do the same as Win XP? It is because the Vista is joining to a domain and the computer is a public usage. If I just delete their profile in Vista, the domain users cannot recreate the profile, also I cannot delete their account. No solution for that? Thanks! |
