  1. Different apps for different user profiles


    I want to have two profiles, each with access to different apps. Doesn't seem like it should be too complicated. For example, I want profile1 to have access to itunes, but not profile2. I want the profile2 to have access to RStudio, but profile1. I'm using Windows 10 home edition.Thanks.

  2. Using controllers on different windows user profiles

    Thanks for your comprehensive response.

    I worked through each step and none seemed to make a difference: with the new profile the problem was the same, and the DS4 windows specific suggestions also didn't seem to make a difference.

    It's worth pointing out that my controller is connected via a standard cable, not via bluetooth. The cable and connection port seem to be all in order as they work fine on the default user profile.

    In addition, I should also point out that while the programs don't detect any connected controllers, settings and device manager both display the correct controller as being connected. As it works on the other profile, all drivers are updated and fine too. Thanks for the suggestions again, I hope we can find a fix to this

  3. The User Profile Service service failed the sign-in. User profile cannot be loaded.

    Hello,

    When attempting to login to my computer, I get the following message:

    "The User Profile Service service failed the sign-in.

    User profile cannot be loaded."

    I referred to this Help article,You receive a "The User Profile Service failed the logon” error
    message,


    but the only difference is I only have one user profile on this computer. So, I can't login with another user to go through the steps listed in this post.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks,

  4. Different apps for different user profiles

    Different users sharing apps

    Hello,



    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.



    I understand that you wish to transfer files (apps and settings) from one user account to another.



    Follow the steps and check:

    • Press Windows + X keys on the keyboard, select
      Control Panel.
    • Select System and Security and then
      System.
    • Click Advanced System Settings.
    • Under User Profiles, click
      Settings
      .
    • Select the profile you want to copy.
    • Click Copy to, and then enter the name of, or browse to, the profile you want to overwrite. This will usually be in C:\Users\username, where username is the name of the profile to which you are copying.
    • Click Permitted to use, and then add all user accounts to which you want to give full profile control.
    • Click OK.


    I hope the above information helps. Kindly let us know if you need any further assistance with Windows. We are glad to assist you.



    Thank you.
