    How to purify a corrupt User


    On my PC Windows 10 is Fully Updated yet Voice Recorder works in one user account but not in another.
    It must be one user is pure while the other is corrupt.

    What if I:
    1. created a temporary user
    2. copied all of the data from the corrupt user into the temporary account
    3. deleted the corrupt user account and recreated it
    4. Copied all the data back
    5. Delete the temporary user

    Advice about how to proceed appreciated; some pitfalls are:
    • I cannot delete an account that is in use
    • I backup my system partition to OneDrive
    • Gmail, Contacts and Calendar are sync with my cellphone

    :)

    If it is not listed in the Control Panel, or it can't be removed there, move on to step 2. You
    might be able to skip the step with HitmanPro. (30 day free trial if needed)

    A PC doesn't need to be cleaned. That's how you know "PC Purifier" is worthless.

    Current active users that are friends

    The other reason I suggested this is that users can add characters to their username that are not alphanumeric (e.g. user*). This confuses things somewhat when looking at the list.
