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.
