  2. Windows 10 Log-in Takes Forever

    I had an issue with ProfSvc. I knew it was caused by eset nod32 antivirus blocking the Profile Service. I tried to uninstall nod32 in Safe Mode, but it didn't work in safe mode. I downloaded eset uninstaller (offered by eset) and run it in safe mode. It uninstalled the antivirus for me successfully.
    When I tried to log in, I got no more ProfSvc error, but the login process takes forever and doesn't proceed to showing the desktop.

    I don't really want to reinstall the windows. Are there any suggestions to fix this problem?
    Oh, by the way, it doesn't log in even in Safe Mode anymore.
    The only way to get through is command prompt now.

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    As you may already know, Windows 10 (as well as Windows 8) allow you to log in with a valid Microsoft account, instead of creating a local account that only works on your machine. However, you may prefer to keep a local account for privacy reasons. If you do, though, some Windows 10 features—like Cortana—may not work. Despite the default behavior, the Windows 10 Store is not one of them. You can still log in to your Microsoft account for just the Store without switching to a full Microsoft account. The process, however, is not terribly obvious. To do so, follow these steps:

    • Launch the Store from your Start menu.
    • Click the user icon next to the search box.
    • Click “Sign-in” from the menu that appears.
    • Choose “Microsoft account” and log in like normal.
    • When the “Make it yours” box appears do not enter your password. Instead, click “Sign in to just this app instead.”
