• Administrator and user only: should I create a user account for myself or run as administrator?

  My laptop is my own, one machine, not networked to any other machine and I am the only user, mainly at home. Create a user account for myself or function as an administrator?  (Thanks for a MAC person unknown w/pc!)

  Hello JudySanDiCa,

  I suggest that you create another user account.  This can be very useful in case you forget or lose the administrative password.

• Cannot create a user account

  I can no longer create a user account on my computer without a following error message is displayed. It is said that my account name cannot contain characters other than letters and numbers. the name in which I entered did not include one of these special characters, so I don't know what I did wrong. I can also change an existing account name, or what I can change my account picture. Help, please!

  Hello

  If you logged in as ADMINISTRATOR, then this account is probably corrupted.

  Try these to erase corruption and missing/damaged file system repair or replacement.

  2. start - type in the search - box COMMAND find top - RIGHT CLICK – RUN AS ADMIN

  -----------------------------------------------

  After the foregoing:

  Try to use the ADMIN which is accessible from Safe Mode - repeatedly tap F8 as you start - ADMIN
  has no password by default (unless someone has changed). Use this ADMIN to perform the functions
  suggested below (use of the hidden ADMIN account) If you are unable to access the mode without failure.

  Then do-, use the hidden administrator account to lower your user account (to the lowest level) APPLY/OK
  then go back and reset it to the Admin APPLY/OK - this clearly allows corruption. Do this several times. Do the
  same for other accounts that may be difficult. Then if necessary you can also reset your password
  in the accounts. Do not forget to leave your Admin account and the other to the desired level.

  Make another Admin account with your password and use it to fix the others if necessary. (just for
  repair, don't use regular account, not a safety valve) always keep a spare ADMIN account.

  DO NOT LEAVE THE ENABLED LSA OR USE DAILY. If it corrupts you are toast!

• Windows 7 Home Premium - all user accounts have disappeared after the update of Windows...

  My Windows 7 Desktop is really watered.  After a Windows automatic update, none of the user accounts appear in the login window.  Only a generic connection where you will need to enter the user and the password are displayed.  And when I enter the user name and password, I get a message that they are not valid.

  Here are a few additional pieces of information:

  1. I tried to restore to the point before the update, but it fails.  I get a message that there are missing files.

  2. my other restore points I had before the update are no longer available.  I don't know what happened to them that they do not appear on the screen of restore points.

  3. I can't log on to the computer at all, none of the accounts work.  I can get to a command prompt by using the repair disk, and I can see all the folders for the users.  So everything is intact.   Something must have happened to some system files and thus connect is not possible.

  4. users appear in the list of profiles in the registry.

  5. no windows service start because none of the users are no longer valid.

  6. I tried sfc/scannow, but I get an error "already waiting.

  7. I tried to add users on the command line using net and they are successful but even when they do not appear on the login screen and I can't manually type in these user accounts - I get the message that they are not valid.

  I tried searching online and I'm still not able to connect to the computer.  It has been 2 days of downtime.  What happened to my old restore points?  And why doesn't my restore points created by the work of windows update?

  I want to just restore from factory default, but I'm afraid I'll lose data in particular, all of the files currently sitting in the user folders.

  Any advice would be much appreciated.

  Here are a few comments:

  1. I tried to restore to the point before the update, but it fails.  I get a message that there are missing files.

  -> Which files are missing? Can you give an example?

  2. my other restore points I had before the update are no longer available.

  -> This happens after the automatic updates.

  5. no windows service start because none of the users are no longer valid.

  -> How to tell you, because you were unable to connect?

  7. I tried to add users on the command line using net and they are successful but even when they do not appear on the login screen and I can't manually type in these user accounts - I get the message that they are not valid.

  ->, I guess you have done this so that in the WRE (repair Windows environment). It is a ghost environment that disappears that you restart the system. Drive X: is a virtual, not a real disc.

  I want to just restore from factory default, but I'm afraid I'll lose data in particular, all of the files currently sitting in the user folders.

  -> Many people are unaware of the need for regular backups (for example, weekly) until they are suffering from a major disaster.

  Suggestions

  Going by your description, I suspect that your existing accounts are irreparable. They need to be rebuilt. User data appear to be safe.

  Option 1. Use the console commands then in WRE to save all the files of the user on an external hard drive. A disk 2.5 "500 GB in a USB enclosure costs less than $60,00. After having tested the files on another machine, perform a destructive factory restore.

  Option 2. Start the computer with a boot of Ubuntu CD, then its GUI allows to save files to the user. It takes time to burn such a CD, but the copy process is easier. When you're done, do a factory restore.

  Option 3. A somewhat complex process allows you to create a new admin account, and then use this account to create new user accounts. You must then manually configure each of them (for example Outlook) and move their records of the old data to the new profile folders.

  There is also a method to restore old files registry of a set of backup files are a few days old. In your case I wouldn't consider as it would create a disjoint system: the registry files refers to a set of files that have been largely modified by the update.

  Post again if you need more detailed instructions for the option that you favor.

• I cannot create new user accounts and have tried all the steps listed in all of the current discussions, does not

  Good people you've heard of this one before:

  I can connect to my basic admin account, but not others.  I tried to create new user accounts after you delete the old user accounts but system would not apparently carry out process.  I get the following warning:

  Service user profile Service failed to connect
  User profile cannot be loaded.

  I tried all of the recommended patches (see list below)

  1 ran all appropriate steps as stated in the article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947215 - no joy
  There is not other profiles listed in the register except the administrator account on the basis and since I couldn't connect successfully to a user apparently newly created accounts, the profile has not completed the process of generation.

  2. I have not ran the SFC system - no joy.  He replied with the following: Windows Resource Protection did not find any breach of integrity.

  Then... of other big ideas?

• Is impossible to turn on the guest account. Cannot create new user account. "The service user profile Service has no logon. User profile cannot be loaded. »

  Is impossible to turn on the guest account.  Cannot create new user account.  After to try one of those and reboot, the icons of account appear, but when you try to use, the following instructions of error present when you try to log in with the new account or comments: "the user profile Service service has no logon.  User profile cannot be loaded. "I looked at the answers to all the previous ones (including the KB947215) and no not to address specifically.  For the most part, they seem to assume that there is a guest or a new profile in the first place...

  The system is Win 7 Pro 64-bit with all available updates.  I can't say when the last time that the guest account has worked (rarely used) and just found out I can't do new additional user, accounts trying to solve the problem of account of comments... so I have not tried to enter Safe Mode and do a system restore , because I can't yet identify a useful restore point...

  There are no entries in the registry for a guest or a new standard user account.  The registry entries for the three accounts normal-quickly (2 x admin, 1 x level) seem to be appropriate.  Watch register computer/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList

  S-1-5-18 = system profile

  19 = local service,

  20 = network service,

  21 long numbers + 1004 plus User1 (admin),

  22 long + 1005 plus 2 user (admin),

  23 plus long + 1006 is user3 (standard,

  and no comments or additional profiles appear.

  C:\Users includes

  All users,

  User1,

  User3,

  By default,.

  Default user (which is inaccessible for me, even as an administrator),

  Public,

  User2,

  No guest or additional profile appear.

  All except the default user (I can't open) seem to have the appropriate, NTUser.DAT files although I don't know how to check for corruption.  Having both a default value

  and a default user folder seems hokey.

  I think I understand instructions how to fix or remove a corrupted profile, but that does not apply to the guest account or profiles that do not exist.

  Help?  Ideas?

  This message contains the strange solution.

  [Plan B - I found one thread where one user said that the same symptoms of the problem that you experience this problem solved]

  - - - - - - - - - - -

  Plan h - while another user said that it was caused by a file Windows Live problem

  This is the thread I can not create a new user account (Windows 7): the user profile service service doesn't have the logon

  You find it difficult to follow the thread as it's long and reported problem by different people to confuse it and there is also a bit of bickering [long filaments often end up being quite incomprehensible].

  ..., See references to the event viewer in the middle of page 4 and Windows Live we [at the bottom of page 2 more on page 3].

  I see not the logic of the any of those things, but if one of them do things long enough that you are trying to create new accounts that works, you will know how in the future until a proper solution is found.

  This is the useful part where this user has tested the solutions proposed in this thread linked above: -.

  This has proved to contain leads to a difficulty.  Have to admit, when I read everything the first time, several days, I did indeed find it confusing and even the parts that I "heard" (sorta) does not appear to be related to my symptoms.

  It turns out that the answer of JDMICHAL May 17, 2011 contained this:

  (1) C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows open live
  (2) this directory has two subdirectories with a single file of each. Go into each directory and apply the following:
  (a) make a right click on the file, open the properties.
  (b) click the Security tab.
  (c) it will issue a message: "to continue, you must be an administrative user with permission to view this object's security properties. Would continue you? ». Click on the button continue.
  (d) click on the Add button...
  (e) ' everyone' type in the box at the bottom of the dialog box. Click on "check names"; It should be emphasized the "everyone". Click OK.
  (f) ensure that the new "Everyone" entry "read" and "read & run" check under the column "allow".

  After doing this for two files, attempt to connect to the account. He must undergo.

  The procedure (bascially) worked... Although the different answers on my system differed slightly along the way (perhaps due to the slightly different versions of Win 7?, because I was already logged in as an administrator?).

  In any case, "Everyone" with the read and read/execute permissions adding to these two files seems to have done the trick:

  C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\Bici\Bici1_00.sqm

  and

  C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\SqmApi\SqmData720896_00.sqm

  Thank you for leading me to this!

• Create a user account specific for the base game.

  I would like to be able to create a user account to install a basic version of a game that has expansion packs installed on a different user account. is this possible?

  It will not work as it is, as it will be installed to the same file location.  However, it can work if you create another folder to install sub in the user account.

  Example: C:/program files/games/game

  make a folder of the game - 2

  C:/program files/games/game-2

  so you want to now the-2 is the second.

  I can't recipient that it will work, as all games are different *.

  2 right click on the shortcut to the Console, and then run it as administrator.
