  1. duplicated profile after update. pls help.


    Hi!

    So I have made my account to auto log-in to my windows 10.
    I decided today to update my system to the current 20H2 (OS Build 19042.746)
    After the update I have prompted to a login error and the profile that Windows wanted me to log in is completly named as my main profile and can log into it with my password and account.
    BUT! and this is a huge BUT!
    I did not set this up and I can't remove it. Upon entering to Settings\\Accounts\\ THERE IS NO OTHER
    PROFILE except mine what i used untill this update.

    How can I get rid of this "duplicated" profile if it does not show up in the accounts menu?

    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 duplicated profile after update. pls help. :) 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.
