Windows 10: Clone Admin profile to standard profile???

I have been using my admin profile daily.

I want to make a standard user account for myself (for online safety issues).

I now have two accounts - both are currently admin user accounts

I logged into the newer admin one and EVERYTHING was so different.

I want to clone my previous account profile and settings to make a standard account that looks just like my new one!

Even the email looked different...

How can I get them both to look alike with the same settings?

Is that how it works?

If I'm logged in as standard user and have to make a change as administer how does that work?

Also, I have 3 accounts in the bottom left of sign in screen.

I'm so confused!

Can someone WALK me through details on how to do this and straight it out?

Lost default photo viewer after profile rebuild


Thanks Brink. I've tried those steps before i started searching Google. After the profile rebuild i don't have the Photo app listed to choose to make it default in either the system settings for default apps or the Open With option.

I can't even find it doing a search. Seems to have been removed somehow with the profile rebuild, which doesn't make sense.

Might be helpful to list what i've done I've done the open with check, the choose default program in the system menu, tried that in device manager default programs also. I've checked the programs and features Turn windows features on/off and it's not listed there (never thought it was but that was a suggestion), searched the MS Store, it's not listed there either.

I don't like playing in the registry unless i have defined steps and haven't found anything for this yet, just the Win7 version like in my OP.

 

User profile corruption after cloning git repository

My user profile is getting corrupted after cloning the git repository.

While the cloning is in progress there are scripts in the repo which tries to access 'c:\users\username\appdata\roaming' to save some data.

In the console log, getting the error as 'c:\users\username\roaming' folder doesn't exist and cloning stops. The location 'c:\users\username' folder is not accessible as "You don't currently have permission to access this folder"
error occurs (User has administrator privileges) This happens only after cloning the repository. Once the user profile is corrupt after sign in a temporary user profile is created and "We can't sign in to your account" error occurs.

Before the cloning I am able to access these folder without any errors and can sign in to the machine without any issues.

To recreate the corrupted user profile following these steps and the solution works.

After this whenever tried cloning to repo same user profile corruption issue persists.

Machine Details:

OS: Windows Server 2016

Git: 2.18.0

This issue is observed for couple of guys in team but works fine for others as a regular process of git cloning. Cross verified the system configuration and git repository privileges as well.
