Continue to get a temporary profile

Hi guys, I run a standalone PC, it runs Windows 7 Home Premium. The other day I was connected and we had a power cut, one of many that day. In any case, I left the PC off and the next day when I logged back on, I lost my familiar desktop (icons, background etc), and the following message appears in the bottom right of the computer where the system tray:

""You have been connected with a temporary profile. " You can't access your files and files created in this profile will be deleted when you logout. To resolve this problem, disconnect and try to connect later. Please see the the event log for more information or contact your system administrator""

I have tried rebooting several times but that didn't work, I googled the problem and try to fix it by going to the registry to the following entry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
Here, I removed the ".bak" put an end to my profile and renamed the current profile by adding "." NEW' at the end, but it didn't work. I always get the same message every time, and every time I lose everything.
I'm the only user on this computer, there is no other account, other than a guest account that is turned off
Could someone help me to try to restore my original profile, thank you. I hope that I was clear. This is driving me crazy like whenever I'm restart/reboot the computer he'll be back as if I were a new user, then I lose everything like the pages I've visited, password that I entered etc.

JC

Imran thank you for taking the time. What I did at the end was to delete the profile that ends with. BAK in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList.
So now, when I log in, I'm over my profile. I managed to recover my bookmarks in Firefox. I'll leave it at that it is satisfactory. Run full scans last night with my software of anti-malware, anti-virus, just in case, but they both came back clean.
Thanks again

JC

  • I'm using temporary profile of Microsoft. Updated the question. A rec answer would be moot.

    I've been in the temporary account or a profile of Microsoft for about 2 months.  They are using my computer.  Don't panic!  But I have no way to contact them.

    I need to know what I can do in this mode, specifically out my old Creative sound card and put in my new with its pilots.

    I don't get the message that I'm in a temporary profile immediately.  It comes shortly after.

    There is a balloon in the lower right corner that says... "you have been connected to a temporary".

    View profile.  You can't access your files and files created in this profile will be deleted when you log out.

    Contact your system administrator to correct this.

    I have no two-way communication, so I have no one to ask.  If it is legit, I have no problem.

    I think that a Microsoft Team change apps on the market.  There is a number on the start page

    The market square which has increased until it reached 22.

    I can use the Internet, go to YouTube, MSN, etc. But my file titles exist with nothing in it.

    Hi Randall,.

    Do you get "Microsoft temporary profile" when you connect to the account?

    This behavior can occur if the user profile was deleted manually using the command prompt or by using Windows Explorer. A profile that is manually deleted does not remove the security identifier (SID) of the list of profiles in the registry.

    If you get this error message, you can perform the steps.

    I suggest you perform the steps mentioned by "James V replied on 29 January 2013" of a similar discussion.»

  • Why do I get a message temporary profile w / no access to my files, & how to fix it?

    Whenever I try to open a session (for all users) I get a message that I am connected to a temporary profile and can't access or save all files. The suggestion to disconnect & try to connect later worked again (for about 100 connections later, anyway). I don't understand something in the event log (as was also suggested) & I have tried a system restore, but the first available for restore date was after the problems started. I fear that all my pictures and my music files are gone forever. BTW, I learned my lesson - everything will be saved on a USB in the future - but I need help now. Any suggestions?

  • How to get back to that temporary profile?

    Connected to my laptop with Windows 7 Starter.  Unbeknownst to me at the time, I was connected to a temporary profile where I saved some pictures in a local image file.  Now I can not find the photos logged in my profile.  How to get back to that temporary profile?  I tried to search the name of the image file but no luck.

    Just my name "Tammy" and "Public".

    Sorry, bad news. This means that Windows deleted the profile folder (containing your photos) used for the temporary account.

    It seems that the latest version of your account is be corrupted again and again.

    • It could have been a recent update that ruined your account profile.
    • You may accidentally set something in a browser - or a profile that has corrupted the configurations of your account.
    • It could just be a corrupted file in your account that cannot be deleted.

    The following can help, if there is not something IN the account which is the origin of corruption.

    Other Options

    The answer above is actually a part of a group more important answers grouped in a Post on the Microsoft response Page: temporary profile after updating to Windows 7

    Try restoring the system to "return to a date and time" when all this worked:

    Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 8)

    Restore Windows to an earlier Point (Windows 7

    For later

    One of the things that you might consider for that and for any computer you have in your home network:

    • Keep an additional account on the computer with administrator privileges.
    • Do not use the account.
    • Do not "add things" about the account, including additional browsers, the shortcuts that are not part of the standard operating system, and do not use the account for program facilities.
    • Do NOT set the account with a fingerprint Reader.
    • Do NOT set the account with any other additional security that the VERY GOOD password that you give the account when you create it.
    • Don't create fancy settings in the account, do not change the "customization", or other settings that alter the fundamental nature of the account.
    • Journal to the account on the occasion of being sure that have access to the account.

    Why have the extra account?

    It is insurance.

    Hi Pete Wiz.

    Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:

    Method 1: This problem occurs if the current user profile has been accidentally deleted from the system.

    Note: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information on how to back up and restore the registry

    a. log in the system by using an administrative user account other than the user account that is experiencing the problem.

    b. back up the data in the folder of the current user profile if the profile folder still exists and then delete the profile folder. By default, the profile is located in the following location:

    %SystemDrive%\Users\UserName

    c. click Start, type regedit in the search box and press ENTER.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.

    d. Locate the following registry subkey:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList

    e. under the ProfileList subkey, delete the subkey named SID.bak.

    Note: SID is a placeholder for the security identifier (SID) of the user account that is experiencing the problem. The SID.bak subkey must contain a ProfileImagePath registry entry that points to the folder of the original profile of the user account that is experiencing the problem.

    f. exit the registry editor.

    g. log off the system.

    h. Journal to log on to the system again.

    Here is an article:

    Note: The article also applies to Windows 7.

    Method 2: I also suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

    The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

     

    Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

    Important: During the scan of the hard drive if bad sectors are found, the scanner tries to repair this sector, all available on which data may be lost.

    Hi Alisha,

    You said that didn't happen on your account and not the other two. And you said you tried these links, I hope you don't delete all users according to the instructions...

    in any case, you can easily have access to your files on the account that you have trouble accessing via two other accounts work. Navigate to C:\documents and settings\ this folder contains all the user profiles and all the documents and the data is stored in the profile folder name. Find the folder with the name of your account on it and inside you will find all the documents, Favorites, etc.

    To get to C:\documents and settings\ open my computer, double-click the drive that you installed Windows, and Documents and Settings will be a folder you will see in the beginning of the hard disk.
