I can't log on my user account

Someone recently infected my computer with a Remote Administration tool and ran the command 'net user Olly/delete' while I was disconnected, they then added a password protected user and restarted my pc.

They asked me money in Exchange for password, which was simple, I've just entered the CMD in safe mode and delete this user. Now, I have all my files from my user but I can't connect to it as far as I know.

So that's where in C:\Users\ but it is not there in the log on screen

Here you go:
1. keep tapping F8 during the first phase of startup.
2. select Repair from the menu.
3. Select an administrator account, and then enter its password.
4. When you are prompted, select System Restore.
5. set Windows to a point, until the computer has been infected.
6. plan in advance and create, test and document a spare, even admin account that you have a spare House key.
7. think carefully how your computer has been infected, and then apply that knowledge to prevent future infections.

    Hey Grant,

    You can use the Windows shortcut to have two or more user account active at the same time. The shortcut for this is to hold down the "Windows" key on your keyboard and also press the 'L '. This will cause then the Windows logon screen appears, but without logging the first user account.

    Jue Shaw

    Hello Jue Shaw,

    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Community Forum.

    Your description of the issue where a standard user to get CTRL-ALT-DEL screen which shows the option "disconnect", looks that you have 'parental control' active. We will check if the time limits have been defined for the standard user.

    (1) log in with your administrator account.

    2) click Start, then in the search window, type Parental controls.

    (3) select Parental control in the selection of programs.

    (4) If you are prompted, type your password or provide confirmation.

    (5) select the standard user account for which you want to set up parental controls.

    (6) under Parental controls, click.

    You will see the configuration choices:

    a. web Restrictions.

    b. time limits.

    c. games.

    d allow or block specific programs

    Time limits prevent children to connect during specified hours and, if they are already connected, they will be automatically disconnected. Check if your standard user accounts have a limited duration that is configured to block time. Blocked hours are considered to be bruises and they are not allowed to log on during that time. Hours helped to open a session are configured at the time and they are the only time when a standard user can connect.

    To test this, set the parental control off to the standard user. You must be logged on as administrator to set or change the parental control. If the standard user can now log on, you change the time.

    Please post again after testing these steps and let us know the results. If you still need help, we will be happy to help you.

    Thanks for posting this question in the Microsoft Community!

    I understand that you can not change the UAC settings on the computer and the system hangs. I'm sorry for the inconvenience caused to you. Rest assured that I will do my level best to help you.

    Did you of recent changes to the computer before the show?

    (b) run this command

    Reg.exe ADD HKLM/v EnableLUA /t REG_DWORD /d 1/f

    Registry warning: Important 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.

    4. Type the name you want to assign to the user account, click an account type, and then click on create an account.

    To copy files to the new user profile

    After creating the profile, you can copy the files from the existing profile. You must have at least three user accounts on the computer to perform these operations, including the new account that you created.

    1. Log on as a user other than the new user that you created or the user that you want to copy the files.

    2. Open Documents by clicking on the button start , and then clicking Documents.

    5. Find the C:\Users\Old_Username folder, where C is the drive that Windows is installed, and where ancien_nom_utilisateur represents the name of the profile you want to copy the files to.

    6. Select all the files and folders in this folder, except the following files:

      • Ntuser.dat

      • Ntuser.dat.log

      • Ntuser.ini

    7. Click the Edit menu and then click on copy.

      If you don't see the Edit menu, press ALT.

    8. Look for the C:\Users\New_Username folder, where C represents the drive Windows is installed, and New_Username is the name of the new user profile you created.

    9. Click the Edit menu and then click on paste.

      If you don't see the Edit menu, press ALT.

    10. Sign out and then sign back in as a new user.

      If you have messages in e-mail, such as Windows Mail, you must import your e-mail messages and addresses to the new user profile before you delete the old profile. If everything is working properly, you can delete the old profile.
