Looking through all the interesting places on AtlasObscura.com just brings home to me that at age 64, I don't have all that much time to visit every interesting place I want

Yeah I'm 66 and while I'm still in fairly good health I figure I might as well check off as many off the bucket list as I can before...well you know.

On the start-page the post looks like this: "All the places I want to visit.... - The Lounge"
So - where else would you want to go than the lounge? 
|
|

Well, the Lounge is nice, what with the overstuffed leather armchairs, the impeccably dressed waitresses delivering Irish Mist (my favorite tipple), and a nice Dianna Krall album in the background, but I would also like to see the "castillo-de-zafra" in Spain, the 'great-wall-of-la' in Los Angeles, and many others.

So I logged in yesterday and got a message saying that I had been logged in with a temporary profile.
 ... did a bit of Googling and came up with a lot of sites that basically said, save the profile data and then delete the registry key associated with it, and log in again (creating a new profile).
Looked under the users directory and my profile was almost completely gone. Just two or three empty directories left. and double .
Fortunately I never save any data in My Documents (for this very reason; I don't trust the OS to preserve it), and everything is on another drive. However all settings and a few files placed temporarily on the desktop are gone. What a PITA.
Happened on Windows 10. If you have anything valuable in your profile directory, get it out now.

I know how to fix it easily.
PM me and tomorrow I will send you the link to what fixes it.

Is it the update KB10Linux237?

How about publishing the link here?

Maybe it's warez. I think that Windows 10 will be usable only with a huge amount of cracks, even on licensed copies.

Sanity checks.
0) Did you try taking ownership of your old profile? By default permissions will mean that most of it won't be visible to your new account (ie the temp profile).
1) What happened to your backup that you couldn't restore from that instead?
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

0) Yes. There was no profile left, all the files were gone.
1) Backup? What backup?
Seriously though, my data was already on a different drive (which is backed up), the system drive wasn't backed up.

Reinstalling and reconfiguring all of my software is the hardest part of switching OS installs. Any backup missing that stuff is woefully incomplete, and between the registry, %program data%, %appdata%, and all the random idiotic places halfbaked software decide to hide their stuff backing up the whole drive is the only way to make sure you've got everything.

Did you solve your problem?
You can restore to earlier point using restore command rstrui if you are logged in as administrator
or try RegEdit fix as described in [Link 1] or [Link 2]

Yeah, that's the one. The one with the profile list
It's printed out at my office in our hot bug folder.
YOU MUST DO IT IN SAFE MODE - at least in 7 or you won't see the registry keys you are after.

Windows 10 may have many faults, but this one isn't unique to it. I've had people come to me with this particular problem since the XP days.

Yes, it has happened in the past too on older versions (though not recently), which is why I never keep any data on the system drive. Windows 10 has been pretty good to me, except in this one instance.

I just heard from a client where they have a very bad internet connection due to their location where their data cap is somewhat restrictive.
They have approximately 30 PCs - where each of these PCs were forced behind the scenes to download Windows 10 for installation - without the users consent.
My client just got her internet bill for the month - data usage is up 300 percent and she is now responsible to pay for this. To boot - there are no plans to update to Windows 10 at this location.
This is not good Microsoft.... not good.

Can they prove this? If so, maybe MS would be responsible???
