    Yeah so I feel like a complete idiot right now. I got the temp profile issue and meant to delete the non .bak, but deleted the bak on accident. What should I do?

    accidentally deleted .bak user registry

    Hi

    I had the issue of logging on my windows 10 account and i got the message saying "you've been signed out of the profile and logged on a temporary profile".

    I checked for solutions online and one was to edit registry and deleted temp user registry rename the one with .bak. that didnt work and another solution was to deleted the one with .bak and rename the profilepath of the one without bak to take me to the
    user account. I tried that but it turned out to be a mistake and now all my documents and files from that user name are gone.

    Is there a way to recover this user registry/with my data?

    Please help

  3. How to restore a deleted user profile with .bak extention in registry?

    Hi everyone,

    Recently when I tried to open my windows 10 laptop it logged in as a temporary profile.

    So,when I found out about the problem from some websites and videos, I found that we need to delete a profile from Regedit command and under profile list. So, as the instructions follow, instead of deleting the SID without .bak at the end I've deleted the
    SID with .bak( after changing the value data). After my system restarted everything I've got a new profile and I've lost all my important files,documents and pictures.

    SO PLEASE, can you guys tell me how to restore my original profile and fix this issue.

    Thanks a lot
