    User profile service failed to sign in

    I recently went out of town and while I was gone my kids got on my computer and proceeded to wreak havoc:

    There were originally 2 accounts. The administrator account was linked to an email account that has been deleted and Google tells me that it has been permanently deleted. So the brats create another user account. They attempt to delete the original administrator
    account and give admin permissions to the account they recently created. when trying to log on to the new admin account, it says User profile service failed at the sign in / User profile cannot be loaded. Anytime I attempt to make any changes to the user
    accounts, it tells me I have to have admin approval. So I enter the username and password and nothing happens. In short, they assigned admin "privilege" to the account with a screwed up user profile. I now have 2 functioning user accounts, but they are both
    set as standard user. I cant change anything about the accounts without using the admin account that doesn't work.

    Now I understand why some species eat their young.
