Windows 10: Event 1521 User Profile Service

After resetting windows 10, left with error on every boot: Event 1521 User Profile Service
Windows cannot locate the server copy of your roaming profile and is attempting to log you on with your local profile. Changes to the profile will not be copied to the server when you log off. This error may be caused by network problems or insufficient security rights.
DETAIL - The system cannot find the path specified.

This is a stand alone computer. It is not part of any domain. It does not have a server. There is only one user -part of the administrators. Additionally, I am unable to change the type of user account from roaming to local.. (It keeps reverting back to roaming). Idon't even know why I have a roaming profile. Something must have changed when the computer was reset.
Tried various fixes found on the internet: registry edit;copy default user folder from another computer; sfc/scan; dism/scan; fully updated;

Most posts on the internet involving this error relate to users as being part of a domain. This is not my situation. Is the solution to recreate my profile and If I recreate my user profile, will I lose all of my settings requiring countless hours to regain? Or is there another fix for this error? Thanks in advance

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,

 

User Profile Service failed

To resolve your concern, we suggest that you follow these steps:

• Copy the Default folder (in C:\Users) from another windows 10 computer.
• Rename the Default folder to something like DefaultOLD (just to keep it for safety reasons).
  
• Paste it in your Users folder.
• To make sure that you won't have problems with permissions of the "implant" folder, just transfer it via a FAT/FAT32 formatted USB stick (those filesystems don't have permissions).

This will provide solution to the error User Profile Service failed.

Let us know if you need more assistance.
