Windows 10: Creating new user - Login error ??

Hi there all... I have what I believe is a commonproblem on my Windows 10


I currently only have 1 user (Admin)... when Icreate a new user, I get the login error.. 'User Profile Can Not beLoaded'


A search shows me this is a common error, thereare various fixes shown online but none worked for me.


I went on to Microsoft chat with a technicianwho did a remote session on my PC.. but he was no help. I asked himto confirm if he had experience of this problem, what he did was tocreate a new user, and then discover for himself that from there thenew user could not login and got the error message.


He obviously was not experienced enough to makeany suggestions for a specific fix to this problem, but instead saidhe'd do an in place upgrade.


He assured me that I would not lose any files,but I simply did not trust that as I have many programmes etcinstalled for work and I can not take any risk of losing even asingle programme or function, set-up or file.


Does anyone have any experience of the userlogin error and the possible fixes..? or can people confirm there isabsolutely zero% risk of an inplace upgrade changing even thesmallest of details on my pc?... or an install going wrong?


Thanks in advance.

User Profile fails sign-in

Your solution is when you can create a new account that can be accessed. In my case every new user created had the profile cannot be loaded error, consequently copying all the data from the old user account is useless as I cannot even login with the new
user.

Please let us have a solution to create a new user account that can be login.

 

[Error] Can't switch default apps win10 after update aniversary version 8/2016

It seems like your profile has errors. Create a new user and change the user to have

administrative rights, login as the new user and copy your data to the new account.

Test and if all works well, delete the old user.

 

Welcome to the forum. It's a default profile problem the MS Rep is correct a upgrade to latest version should fix it and there is no problem all your data and software will all be ok

 

Many thanks.. but is there not a way of either fixing just the default folder.. I have read you can simply replace this folder from a windows 10 machine that works OK.... (I am soooooo worried about even the smallest chance of something changing) or being lost if I did an upgrade... also, why wouldn't a normal Windows update fix rather than a complete windows re-install? s.. sorry for being non tech ... all help/comments appreciated.
