Windows 10: "Failed Sign in - Profile not loaded" - Help ASAP - OMW There soon

I need Some Help ASAP have to go look at the computer in a little while....

I just got a call last night... a buddy and he has this from an issue where he just did updates... So I believe it caused the issue with this... The deadly "The User Profile Service service failed the sign-in User profile cannot be loaded"...

I got some things ready before I shoot over there in a bit... I was trying to do research on this and there seems like there are more than enough causes, his seems because he did an update...

What is the best way to attack this.... I have bootable USB win 10, I downloaded this Windows10Upgrade9252.exe from Microsoft, it appears they say this is fixing the issue, but that is what they say...LOL It is a "better copy" he didn't even upgrade, just update...
Also I dont know if just a scan fix will fix issue, some people have said that does it... again I read a ton and I dont know an ass from an elbow at this point ! So I will wait for the WISDOM to come my way...

...and then I have the experience from you guys which I have been reading a ton on this site, and I am blown away by the experience and knowledge that is present on this board... Im pissed off because Im like where the heck has this forum been all my life !

I just want to know where I should start first, I was going to boot into Safe mode and reboot if I can, and from there I do not no really where to start, I gotta be honest, no sense BS'ing you guys... OHH and I actually follow directions!!!

If there is a quick fix now with an update that would be great...

The facts as I know them...
He is the Only User and is Admin...
He said he clicked on Install updates accidentally as he never does them (he is older and paranoid it will break haha) look where it got em... anyway
After the update he has the sign in issue... He did a reboot and same error w/ sign in
He does not have a Microsoft account , I set up the PC when he got it last year.
and thats about all I know, other than Im going over there in an hour or so... Im the lucky one

I understand that you are getting “The user profile service failed the sign-in. User profile cannot be loaded" error message while logging into your account.

Before we start troubleshooting the issue, we require more information to narrow down the issue.

I suggest you to restart the computer once and check if you are able to login to the computer.

Windows 10 - The User Profile Service failed the sign-in User Profile cannot be loaded

This is absolutely no help. I cannot get to the desktop. The sign-in FAILED! That's what the message is all about.
