Could not connect to the service user profile Service.

I have a little disconcerting problem.  Every day or two, I can not connect to Windows correctly.  When I start, select my account (which is also the unique administrator account) and enter my password, it spends an abnormally long time in the 'Starting Windows' screen, then I get the following message pop up in the notification area:

"Unable to connect to a windows service.
Windows could not connect to the service user profile Service.
This problem prevents limited users to logon to the system.
As an administrator, you can review... »

Shortly after this message, I get a windows error message saying:

"Location is not available.
C:\Windows\system32\config\systemprofile\Desktop is not accessible.
Access is denied. »

This seems just a desktop computer black with only the Recycle bin icon on it, and the old Windows Start button in the taskbar.

While trying to understand what is happening, I looked into the application of 'Problem reports and solution' in the control panel and found that every time this happens, I also have a corresponding event of "Stopped working" "Routing and remote access.

I then restart using F8 at startup and choose the one that says something to the effect of "using the last good configuration known."

I'm not sure what that means at all, but I hope that one of you people can help.

Thank you!

Hello any Leafs fan,

Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.

Looks like you're running only because of using a system restore to get back when your system is running. Now, you want to know what caused it.

Usually, when the above error occurs, it is due to a corrupt user profile.
The best way to fix this is to remove the user profile.

  • Go to the Start button
  • Right click on computer
  • Go to the properties
  • Go to Advanced System Properties on the left pane
  • Select the Advanced tab
  • Go to the user profile Section and click on the settings button
  • Find the profile for the that you want to remove and click Remove.  (It's the best way to remove the local profile in Windows Vista).
  • Connection again and you will get a new profile.
  • To get your Favorites return, go to the old profile in C:\users and copy the data manually.

The only way to identify what caused the error with the user profile is to try to reproduce it.

If you have not installed the update of Windows, then you can go to Windows updates and see what are the updates must be installed and manually download them and install them one at a time. Between the installation of the system, make sure you have a restore point that you can go back to if necessary. Once an update is installed, then close and open a session back (or reboot if required by the software update) and see if you get the error user profile. If the error occurs, then go to Services and see if the user profile service is running and set to automatic.

If you are not able to do anything when the problem occurs, then try to start in safe mode using the F8 key and see if the problem occurs in safe mode.

You can also look in the event viewer to see if there is no dealing with event profile user or Windows Update errors.
To get to the event viewer, you can type in eventvwr.msc in the box start the search. This will bring up the event viewer and you can view the summary logs and see what kind of errors you encounter.

Please post with your results and if you need further assistance.

    Using the F8 method:

    1. Restart your computer.

    4. Then press enter on your keyboard to start mode without failure of Vista.

    When you log on a Windows Vista-based or a Windows 7 computer by using a temporary profile, you receive the following error message:

    The user profile Service has not logon. User profile cannot be loaded.

    Your user profile was not loaded correctly! You have been logged on with a temporary profile.

    If you tried to log on to Windows and received an error message telling you that your user profile is damaged, you can try to fix it. You will need to create a new profile and then copy the files from the existing to the new profile. You must have at least three user accounts on the computer to perform these operations, including the new account that you created.

  • Weather gadget not working - could not connect to the service

    I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit and my weather gadget does not work, it displays a message "unable to connect to the service.

    I also tried turning off the firewall and antivirus , but it still doesn't work for me.

    Update:
    Microsoft has DISABLED the weather gadgets and currency via a recent update of security, because of worries about the vulnerability associated with these gadgets running on your computer. You can read more here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2719662 . Adjust the settings of your computer and all these other 'suggestions' people are, will NOT work. The function has been REMOVED from the operating system. It has also been removed from Windows 8 operating system. There are "theorists" who agrees that there is a security problem in the gadgets or Microsoft just doesn't support gadgets (usually from third party software) and has therefore disabled them in Windows 7 and eliminated in Windows 8.

  • Windows could not connect to the user profile Service

    I couldn't use my own laptop for six months. Whenever I try to connect to my profile (profile/ONLY the Administrator profile), it gives me this:

    "Unable to connect to a windows service. Windows could not connect to the service user profile service. This problem prevents standard users to log on to the system. As an administrator, you can view the system event log to see why the service did not respond. »

    -My personal profile seems gone.

    -Impossible to connect to the internet (my connection is fine, I use another laptop on the network even in the same House now)

    -Return to default settings

    Hi 1234Tony,

    First of all, I suggest you that you also scan your laptop for infection by the virus. Second, reset TCP/IP stack Winsock settings. This could correct mistakes involving internet connectivity as a result of problems of installation of network software, due to a virus, trojan or malware infection or even due to disinfection of spyware security software.

    To repair and put back the Windows Vista

    1. Click the Start button.
    2. Type Cmd in start it the search text box.

    4. Type netsh winsock reset in the command line shell, and then press the Enter key.

    Can anyone help?

    Very frustrated customer :-(

    Hi @roopuk,

    Thanks for getting back to me.

    Sometimes the manual DNS 8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4 won't work in some configurations of network users.  Try the same steps as described above, but this time use the following parameters:

    Manual preferred DNS Server: 209.244.0.3
    Auxiliary manual DNS server: 209.244.0.4

    If you encounter the error, as before, we take our proverbial gloves off to try a more intensive troubleshooting.

    What is happening, it is that your router allows your printer connection that to enable wireless, but not a secondary connection to Web services.  In order to get these devices to 'shake hands' a second time, you may need to enable DMZ mode on your network through the router's built-in Web server.  HP does usually not this configuration for its customers as errors can cause serious network problems, but I can certainly post the info you need on your router or the ISP of the staff support company so that they could help you directly.

    Here is the information that you need for your provider service to open ports on your router/modem...

    -Multicast must be enabled
    -Hello enabled for AirPrint (relevant for iOS and Mac OS users)
    -Mac filtering should be disabled
    -Also, make sure that your router's firmware to date if
    necessary
    - The dmz on the router mode and turn it on to the printers IP address: _

    Ports to open are: Eprint and Apps

    Incoming Ports.

    UDP
    80
    443
    ------------------
    Outbound ports

    TCP
    5222
    5223
    -------------------
    Once they are open, you should have no problems connecting to services web eprint on your device.

    I would like to know how it works for you.

    Hello

    I try to use migrate your PC, feature of VM Fusion 8 but I see the error in the title of the topic when I try to start the import operation.

    I have disabled the firewall on the PC and MAC

    I tried over ethernet and direct connections

    When I run the migration of PC Windows tool, he complains that UAC is enabled even if it is not (confirmed via Control Panel and evolution via the command prompt)

    When you try to migrate, it accepts the PIN and then shows a warning on this certificate, that I choose to browse

    He will then ask admin username/pass on the PC (I tried my only regular and also tried setting a new admin user and try this)

    After that, I see the error: the migration of PC - Converter could not connect to the remote computer. A general error occurred: unknown internal error

  • ePrint Setup could not connect to the network

    I have problem with my hp3515 all-in-one printer (two months). I am facing problem with ePrint. It has been installed correctly, but recently it has stopped working. HP wireless works and shows the IP address. When you press the ePrint button it gives the message that it could not connect to the internet. I tried to reconfigure ePrint and now it is not possible to reconfigure. I use a router D Link DSL-2750U.

    Hello

    First, I put a static DNS on the built-in web server (EWS). To do this:

    1. Type (example 192.168.XXX.XXX) IP address by itself in the address bar of the browser. Who will bring to the top of the EWS page. From there, you want to find the network tab.
