change user

I tried to run mozilla firefox as always double click and it opens this time a pop came out asking me to select a user, I chose 1 on both I feel like I could have selected the wrong one miss me many of my bookmarks and things like that I don't know how to change user?

You might have seen the Firefox profile manager. I suggest quitting out of Firefox and beginning with the Profile Manager to see if that's what it was, and you can try the other profile. The steps in this article:

Use the Profile Manager to create and delete profiles Firefox

Please do not delete anything in the Profile Manager because it's far too easy to delete the wrong thing!

Can go back you to your normal settings?

  • Windows continues to change user profile folder

    Hi all
     
    I'm facing a real headache. My computer continues to change user profiles folder every restart 2 or 3. For example, my user name is MSF\Bob. The user profile folder has been C:\Document & Settings\Bob. After a restart, Windows create a C:\Document & Settings\Bob.MSF then Bob.MSF.000 and Bob.MSF.001 folder and so on.
     
    Someone has an idea why this is happening and how I can prevent this?
     
    I thank very you much in advance!
     
    Best regards

    Easy question to answer.  You simply have a corrupted profile.

    When Windows detects a corrupted profile, it automatically generates a temporary with names profile as you describe.  Usually, these profiles are deleted when you connect your computer turned off, but not always.  The solution is quite simple.  You just need to recover your corrupt profile.   There are two general approaches.  One is to do a system restore to a point in time before the profile was first damaged.  The other usually involves the creation of a new user and moving profile data on to the new user (you may reset some of your settings).  To do this, choose one of the following articles and follow through:

    PS: Corrupt profiles are almost always accompanied by alteration of the disc as well.  After your recovery, perform a check disk (chkdsk) with the "/ R" or "/ F" option

    You can get the default Administrator Windows XP created when you installed everything first, or when it has been installed.

    To do this, restart your computer and press F8 repeatedly until you get a boot options screen.

    You want to use the arrow keys (the mouse doesn't work here) to select "start in safe mode".

    Press ENTER.

    You will come to the login screen and see a new administrator account.

    Click on it, do not fill in the password and press ENTER.

    This SHOULD allow you acess in the computer where you can undo what you did......

  • Computer screen laptop black after changing user or shutdown.

    I am running Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2 on an Acer Extensa 4420.  I had problems with my laptop screen.  Whenever we try to change user or shut down the computer, the laptop screen does not illuminate.  I tried something I read on the internet, where you remove the battery and unplug the unit and then put the back and reboot and it worked for awhile but is less consistent.

    I am currently using the computer with an external monitor connected.  I downloaded the latest driver for my graphics card and that didn't make a difference.

    Hello

    ·         Since when are you facing the issue?

    ·         Black screen that occurs after that use the button change user, is what happens when the applications for the user you are currently logged as long as.

    ·         Was it all (hardware or software) changes made to the computer until the problem started to occur?

    ·         Does it happen on any user where you spend one?

    ·         Using a VPN connection?

    ·         What type of internet connection you have?

    ·         Who is the manufacturer of the graphics card?

    You can check if the third-party application is causing the problem. To identify which application can be the question originally, to perform a clean boot on your computer. To configure the boot of the computer follow the link below.

  • How can I create a shortcut to "change user" on the desktop using rundll32.exe in Vista Home Premium?

    I am trying to create the shortcut to "change user" using rundll32.exewithout to create the shortcut to "lock", only to pass the user. I already know that I have to right click on an empty space on the desktop, press New\Shortcut and type%windir%\System32\rundll32.exe user32.dll,but not after the comma. Type so I can only create the shortcut to "change user" and not the shortcut to 'lock '? (This means that I don't want this: %windir%\System32\rundll32.exe user32.dll, LockWorkStation, with LockWorkStation after him.)

    Unfortunately, it can be done in your version of Vista (or so they say, hang on a moment.)  I found the article according to that cllaims to do in Vista Basic and Vista Home Premium in addint a file and shows a set of procedures.  As it is a 3rd party file, do so at your own risk. http://www.vistarevisited.com/2008/08/02/create-a-desktop-shortcut-to-switch-users-in-vista/.  NOTE: This is not how you suggested higher, but if it works who cares?

    In case you don't want to consider the solution above, you have refused, here is the procedure (how to do it in other versions of Vista):http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/136969-switch-user-desktop-shortcut.html.

  • Windows 10 continues to change user account controls

    Why windows done 10. change user account controls, it's extremely annoying. Whenever I reboot it disables it, which blocks all applications. Why he won't stay where I leave it?

    While I can only say that malware has installed a utility that removes the UAC setting when Windows loading [in the hope that you don't notice the change, and that malicious software can therefore go further by installing other malware without bringing a challenge Admin dialog box].  This problem was reported some time ago and finally diagnosed as a symptom of malware - see Windows 7 UAC (user access control) is disabled on every reboot

    In addition to a full scan with your antivirus installed utility, download and run a scan with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware free [MBAM].  It is much more difficult for malware to hide its presence of two scanners different antimalware.  MBAM can exist alongside other anti-malware utilities, so it won't be a problem.

    Of course, it could be an anomaly in the system instead, but it's not that I've seen reported in this forum before.  Windows has no integrated procedure that changes the setting of the UAC, so it is difficult to envisage any procedure through to cause this symptom.

    Please specify the operating system you are using and use blue change control under your question of re - categorize it as a matter of Windows if necessary 10.

    Good luck
