    • Confirm which build is currently installed on your device. To check, follow the steps below:
    • Press Windows key + R, then type in winver.

    Meanwhile, we suggest that you disable the said user account via Command Prompt. Refer to the steps below:

    1. Right-click on Start button, select
    Command Prompt (Admin).

    2. On the Command Prompt window, type in net user and press
    Enter.

    3. A list of user profiles on your computer will appear, if you see the user account you wish to disable then you can type:

    net user ExampleUserName /active:no (note the space between the end of the user name and the /) and press
    Enter.

    Note: Make sure that you have other accounts available to your computer with Administrator rights before performing this method.

    We look forward to your response.

  4. I cant use my work account or onmicrososft account to login to user profile

    Administrator account, error message: "The user profile service failed the sign in. User profile cannot be loaded" Windows 10.

    Hi Amy,



    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    We understand how you feel about the situation. We're sorry for the trouble this has caused.



    I suggest you to sign out from the current user account, restart the system and login to the either administrator account or the Microsoft account to check, if that helps.



    Also, I suggest you to install any pending updates on the system to check, if that helps. Updates are additions to software that can help prevent or fix problems, improve how your computer works, or enhance your computing experience.

    Occasionally, Windows might not read your user profile correctly, such as if your antivirus software is scanning your computer while you try to log on. Before you follow the methods given in the suggested article, try restarting your computer and logging
    on with your user account again to resolve the issue.


    Let’s try to refer to the suggestions provided by Arul_D replied on February 11, 2016, to fix your issue.

    Redirecting

    Further, you may have to enable the built in admin account from the recovery environment, login to that account and then create a new admin account. Once this is done disable the built in admin account and login to the new admin account to check, if that
    helps.

    Enable built-in administrator by following the steps below, create a new administrator user profile and check if the issue is resolved.

    Step 1: Enable built-in administrator account.

    • Open elevated command prompt by entering Safe mode with Command prompt.
      To go to Safe mode, use the power button on the sign-in screen and press
      Shift (key on the keyboard) + Restart. This will take you to the recovery boot menu. Click
      Troubleshoot> Advanced options> Startup settings.
      You then see a list where you can choose Safe Mode with Command prompt.
    • Type the following command: net user administrator /active:yes to activate the built-in administrator.
    • Login into the built in administrator user profile and create a new user profile with administrator privileges (steps given below).
    • Then lock your screen by pressing Windows key + L keys on the keyboard and sign-in into the
      Administrator account.
    • Disable built in administrator account by typing the command:
      net user administrator /active:no
      in the Command prompt (Admin).
    Step 2: To create a new administrative user account
    follow the steps below:

    • Open Elevated command prompt by pressing Windows logo + X keys on the keyboard and select
      Command prompt (Admin) from the context menu.
    • Type net user NewAccount password /add and click
      Enter
      .
    • Type net localgroup Administrators NewAccount /add and click
      Enter.
    • Log off from the system and login to the new user account.

    If the issue persists, I suggest you to make sure if the "User Profile Service"
    is started and automatic from the new admin user account
    .

    a. Press Windows key + R
    and type "services.msc" in the run box and press Enter.

    b. In services Window check for "User Profile Service"status.

    c. If it is stopped, click on the drop down menu and click on
    automatic
    and click on start.

    d. Check the status of the issue.

    Hope the above information helps. Reply with necessary information and the result to help you further.



    Thank you.
