  1. can't access my local user account


    I'm not good with English so bear with me.


    So recently my antivirus that came with my laptop expired and a blue screen came up telling me to either renew it or okay, i clicked okay and then it took me back to my desktop andall my programs and files was lost, only a clean desktop with the recycling bin and Microsoft edge.


    i thought my Laptop was in another user so when i restarted my laptop a blue screen of death came up and now all my files and programs are lost, when i go into my computer local disk for drive C for user its not there,but when i go to my other disk E the user account files and all my programs are all there.


    please help me recovery my files and put it back to the way the PC was.


    Thank you

    :)

    Local Acct user and MS account user - sync them or merge them

    If the local account is the one where you have most of your personal data, this is how I would do it:

    • Sign in to your Microsoft account
    • Copy all documents, pictures and other personal data from Microsoft account's user folders to corresponding folders in user Public (contents of MS account Documents folder to Public Documents folder and so on)
    • Sign out from Microsoft account
    Notice that above steps are only required if Microsoft account user folders contain data you want to keep. If its user folders are empty or do not contain anything worth saving, you can skip the above steps. Continue from below.

    • Sign in to the local account
    • Delete the Microsoft account (Option One in this tutorial)
    • Switch your local account to a Microsoft account (tutorial)
    • Copy the data backed up from old Microsoft account to Public folders to new Microsoft account in corresponding folders

    That's it. Using the Public folders as temporary storage you will have none whatsoever file owner / permission issues later on.

    Give access to specific apps for Local User

    @dalchina, thanks for the suggestion.

    I tried your blanket option, and that didn't work.

    I filtered per your suggestion:


    can't access my local user account [​IMG]


    However, it seems there are no settings for that filter:


    can't access my local user account [​IMG]

  4. can't access my local user account

    Local account installation question


    I'm fairly certain that Skip this step was available in 10.0.130 - the workaround in Step 20 (back button) is no longer required.

    The currently known, as of 10.0.130, ways to create a Local account sign-in are
    • Skip this step at the MS account creation phase
    • No Internet connection during the install
    • static IP (post# 2 by Fragment) - New (to me anyway)
