Problem copying files to a new user profile

• Restart the system created the new user profile

  When trying to connect to my laptop (before leaving), I have a blank screen with only a cursor before I could log on to the computer. I got tired of hitting CTRL alt del to get into the Task Manager, but he did not do anything.

  Then, I held the power button for five seconds to turn off the computer and restart it.  When he started upward, it showed an error that says the computer is not stopped correctly and on this screen, there are several options to reboot windows, I chose the option "restart windows normally" I could connect with my fine existing password, but when the windows actually open, my experience had changed and all my files are gone.  After some research, I found that all the old information of my were still there, but a separate user profile had been created and everything has been re-pathed to the new user.  The new user profile name was my existing profile name, then my name with a .pc at the end (ie. user name - username.pc).

  My questions are twofold: one) what the hell happened? and (b) what is the simplest to make everything re-pathed to my existing user profile.

  Thank you

  You have been put in a temporary user profile because the original was damaged. You can try the techniques below. If this does not work, let me know and I'll give you another path.

  Critical files are under % systemdrive%\users\user-account\ntuser. The ntuser.dat file is actually a registry hive. Run regedit high and select HKEY_USERS and "load hive" in the menu. Now, go to:

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

  There is a line for each profile. If a profile is bad, check:

  (a) that the name of the key does not stop in ".bak" (remove .bak If it)
  (b) that the RefCount value is 0 (change it if it is different)
  (c) that the State value is 0 (change if different)

  If this is not the case, make the changes and try to connect as this user.

  More details of MVP Aaron Tiensivu - assume in this example that the user name is "atiensivu", field is "personal" and the user profile is located in % systemdrive%\users\atiensivu. Letter is usually C: on standard Vista installs. Replace each instance of "atiensivu" by the username of the corrupted profile.

  1. If you can log in profile, take note of the variable value environment % USERPROFILE. It will probably be "C:\Users\atiensivu" or "C:\Users\atiensivu.staff". Logoff.

  2. If you have opened a session with the profile at any time since your last reboot or you think that there are files in use in the profile, reboot. The important part is to ensure that there are no open files in the directory of the profile broke.

  3. log in as administrator or another account that has local administrator rights.

  4. run "takeown /r /a /d y/f % systemdrive%\users\atiensivu.

  5. starting at % systemdrive%\users, rename "atiensivu" to "atiensivu.old".

  6. in % systemdrive%\users, create a directory named "atiensivu".

  7 run "takeown/r/u staff\atiensivu/f % systemdrive%\users\atiensivu".

  8. run regedit and go to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList and remove the SID key to the corrupted profile. Best way to find the correct SID is looking for the 'ProfileList' key to the directory mentioned in %UserProfile% in #1 step.

  9. closure of the session.

  10 log on the account "atiensivu". A new profile must be created. Copy all the files you can of the old profile directory.

  Orders "takeown" might be overkill, but I don't like permission errors.

  How to transfer files from the current user to a user name

  Is that what you really want to do and why?

  In particular, you want to create a user account completely new to replace an old account may be corrupt, or you want to just copy some files?

  If you want to copy the user profile, see http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/fix-corrupted-user-profile#1TC=windows-7

  If you just want to copy files from the ALICE user to user BOB,

  1. Connect you as a user with "Computer administrator" privileges (this could be ALICE, BOB or another account)
  2. Go to C:\Users\Alice\Documents, right click on desired folders or files and select copy
  3. Go to C:\Users\Bob\Documents and paste files or folders you copies

  Always use 'Copy' rather than 'move '.  After you have determined that the files were copied successfully to their new location, you can go back and delete them from the old location.

  For other than documents files, replace

  C:\Users\\Music

  C:\Users\\Pictures

  C:\Users\\Videos

  etc.

• Lost files after that the user profile service has no problem

  In order to correct a problem with the user profile Service failed, I followed the instructions at support.microsoft.com/kb/947215 to remove the corrupted profile and create a new.  Profile corrupt (probably) was my usual login and my login of admin privileges (I didn't know there was no reason to separate them).  I created the new profile of admin privilege and connected successfully with that.  However, my original admin profile is not deleted and I can now log on that as well.  So now I have two profiles admin and a guest profile.  The problem is that I can't access my data files using these profiles.  This includes my documents Word and Adobe and other applications in which I entered the data.  The applications are there, but they appear as having no data in them.  My screen came back on the screen by default, and almost all of my desktop shortcuts have been removed.

  How can I access my data?

  I have a restore point on January 22.  I deleted the corrupted profile on 30 January.

  You can try this:

  1. Download, install and run the Restore of System Explorer.
  2. Select a date that precedes the January 30.

  This will give you a virtual drive letter that shows the C: drive as it was to the selected date. Using Windows Explorer, you should now be able to copy files and missing files to the place where normally keep you them.

  This could be a good time to review your backup strategy. The rule is: a file that is not saved is a lost file. It's only a matter of time. Regular (e.g. weekly) backups on an external (usually a hard drive in a USB enclosure) are common.

• I have an old profile put in place which is bad I want to transfer files from the old user profile to a new user profile can I do it.

• New user - profile will not be created

  To create a new user and try to connect, I get the following error message: "the user profile Service has no logon. User profile cannot be loaded. "I'm running Windows 7 x 64 SP1.

  My current setup is:
  C: drive (SSD) Program Files, Windows, ProgramData.
  X: drive (HDD) users and everything.

  I use the administrator account under my account. To configure the system, I created a temporary, connected user, modify the registry to point the Users directory on drive X: (and moved Public folders by default in the X:\Users directory). Then, I turned on the Admin account and connected with it. This has created my profile on drive X.

  However, I am creating another account user to test with. The account is named 'Test '. I have the error in quotes when attempts of to the. I checked the X:\Users file and there is no profile for the Test account, not even a folder for it. I tried to copy the profile by default and rename it, but no dice. I also checked the folder seemed to have the appropriate permissions (full control to system, administrators, an administrator as the Test account was an admin account as well). There is no entry in the registry in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList\ for the Test user, so I'm a utility that could find SID from users and created an entry for it, but still, I get the error message when you try to connect.

  Any ideas?

  I solved the problem.  It turns out that the record of X:\Users\Default necessary to give the "everyone" group to read, display the contents of the folder and read and execute permissions. When I copied the profile by default via the user profile screen, it didn't apply permissions; He inherited only those of the destination folder.  The event viewer showed that Windows was not allowed to copy the default profile in the X:\Users\Test folder.  When I have everyone gave permission group in the default profile folder, I was then able to connect with new users (and then ask them to create profiles automatically).

• Why should I create a new user profile when you remove a damaged user account?

  I have a corrupted user account and was referred to the following link http://windows.microsoft.com/en-CA/windows-vista/Fix-a-corrupted-user-profile

  However, I don't understand why we're required to go through this complicated process when we go to Control Panel - user accounts and family safety-user accounts - add and remove accounts delete user accounts until you can actually remove an account asks you if you want to keep the files of this account.  It is said that it can automatically save the contents of this user account office and favorite Documents, music, photos and videos in a new folder on the desktop.  I realize, this does not include e-mail messages, but I thought I could export those to a memory stick and then import them into my new user account.  It all seems a much simpler process than to create a new profile.  Why Microsoft suggests must create a new profile?

  Hello Kodika

  Thanks for the return of the response.  I guess that it was just a typo, but it's OK.  Please let us know if you have any other questions or you are experiencing other problems.

• At first 205, 1 error code when you use the new user profile

  Hello

  I use Windows Professional 8.1 with CS6 installed.

  Now, I've decided for CC, but as several other users, I am still not able to install it!

  On my admin account, I get the error code 205 trying to launch CreativeCloudSet - Up.exe.

  I have read a lot of similar messages and tried everything I have found, for example create a new Windows - this broughtt me just admin user profile somewhat further than installers closes a bit later with another error code (1).

  My PC is a Quad processor 2.4 GHz, 8 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD - technical limitations (I figured out can be indicated by the error code 1) should not be a problem!

  And it is not yet possible to file a mail to Support Adobe as there only the cat and the phone from MO-FR 9-17 h-it's ridiculous...

  In any case - why is there not more simple - the download links for the Apps?

  Obviously, Adobe seems not to be able to provide installers work - CC this is absolutely crap as I am not able to use it!

  I would be really grateful if someone who had / has the same problem (s) would have found a solution - and support pages - please no standard link to fake Adobe!

  Thank you in advance and best regards

  Carsten

  Complete all Adobe processes from the Task Manager.

  Open the c: drive and navigate to C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Adobe.

  Open the Adobe folder and delete folders named Adobe Application Manager and OOBE.

  Navigate to C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe.

  Open the Adobe folder and if necessary remove Adobe Creative Cloud folder.

  Then try to install creative cloud desktop, if you get the error code 205, follow the previous steps again and delete these folders.

  Then see link below:

  Persistent error 205 (Win 7) during the installation of Creative Cloud Desktop

• A new user profile suddenly appeared whose name is garbled agter restart my PC.

  I have an installation of Windows 7 SP1 64-bit randomly acquired a new user account scrambled to restart (Standard permissions).

  I restarted my PC a few hours earlier, that to have a completely random user account appear. The user account name is:

  ypxfoekdmcih

  I found this a bit disturbing.

  The security configuration:

  -ESET Smart Security 8 (he has no active anti-theft but it has already created his account a anti-theft couple months ago). I checked the portal of the protection against theft and the name of the user account is not listed there.

  -All critical and important updates are enabled. Antivirus definitions are up to date.

  -HitmanPro (the second opinion scan on demand), HitmanPro.Alert (similar to EMET).

  -Flash is up to date, no JRE, all browsers are updated (Firefox is 38.0.5).

  During the restart of my PC (before the user account appeared), I think that trust certificates have been updated. Something hung before reboot and I was browsing the event log. I will paste the results below. In the meantime, I'll run some virus scans. Is Mode safe mode w / networking necessary?

  Hello.

  I have had the same problem since I got my 3 Surface Pro running Windows Pro 8.1.  The problem still occurs after the installation of Windows 10.  Oddly enough, I'm also under 8 ESET with installed anti-theft. I wonder if it is the source of the problems.

  I continue to delete accounts, but they continue to come back.l

  I ran several security with 8 ESET and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware scans and everything seems to be clean.

  I'll try and disable the function of protection against theft of ESET to see if that makes a difference.

• Cross and copy files to the new structure

  Hello people!

  I had a huge task I'd like to simplify with a bit of Applescript.

  Basically, I would like to move or copy a lot of files in a new folder structure.

  I have a few different folders with all 500-4000 jpg, see image below.

  First picture shows the old structure, 2nd picture show the new structure I would accomplish.

  

  I want to do is have a script to loop through and take the first 4 characters of the file name and create a folder with that name in the location of my choice.

  Then, create a new folder in the parent called JPEG folder and copy all of the files with the same name specific to this folder.

  So far, I've been able to automate the creation of folders and subfolders.

  any help is appreciated

  loc to choose a folder "choose the Parent folder location."

  Repeat with I from 1 to 3

  the value d to text - via -1 of 2 ("51" & I as text)

  Try

  tell application "Finder" to set targetFolder to create a new folder in loc with properties {name: "61" & j}

  tell application "Finder" to create a new folder to targetFolder with properties {name: "JPEG"}

  tell application "Finder" to create a new folder to targetFolder with properties {name: "PSD"}

  You could try the AppleScript script which is a simple bash script wrapper.

  It will allow you to choose the source directories and destination and then analyze the source for jpeg files tree and copy the jpeg file with name starting with excatly 4 digits IJKL to the correspondent-I000/IJKL directory in the destination. In the destination path directories are created as it should. For example, your screenshots, you can choose the folder '7000-8000' or its parent directory in the source directory and the "OBJECTS" folder as the destination directory.

  Any jpeg file which doesn't have a name starting with exactly 4 digits is ignored. Verbose output of the CP (1) and any errors will appear in the result pane / window (Apple Apple) Script Editor.

• Were there an update recently that could trigger my computer load his new user profile instead of my own profile at startup?

  I get the grey Dell Inspiron screen at startup instead of my profile, and all my display settings and startup programs disappeared. This corrects sometimes when I restart and sometimes I get the grey screen again. This morning (after downloading some updates last night), I got a blue screen Uni with my own icons, but all my parameters display including my image of the office had been reset. I did a system restore once before and that fixes the problem, but the problem started again with the gray Inspiron screen yesterday.

  We have not seen messages indicating that the recent updates are causing problems to user profile, rarely if ever I heard of updates causing corruption of the user profiles.

  Common causes of corruption of the repeated profiles:

  1. bad or, failing hard drive, no spare parts no sectors left.  Run chkdsk on the drive.  Get a diagnostic utility of disk from the web site of the manufacturer of the disc and check the disc.

  2 - bad RAM, run a memory diagnostic test.

  3 - viruses and other such parasites.

  4 applications - bad or ill-conceived.

  5-bad or incomplete discharge of the user, ususally caused by #4 hive.  Something is trying to write to the user hive or maintain the registry handles open when the computer is currently stopped.  Install the Microsoft user profile Hive Cleanup service

• I chose "keep files" before deleting a user profile but nothing appears in the saved folder?

  When I deleted a user profile, I chose to "keep files" and a folder has been created and saved to the desktop on the Administrator profile.  However, when I opened this case nothing appears?  The properties of this reflex folder with precision the size of the files that have been saved (20 GB), but nothing appears when I click on the folders.  This is especially of music and images.  How can I get these files that are obviously there?

  Well, I'm a fool.  Click Documents, select the icon organize in the menu Tools, drop down to folder and Search Options, click view, click on the box that says "show the hidden files and folders". Click on apply. Click OK.  FACT.
