    Internet only stable on profile with MS account


    I have encountered the strangest issue.I have a user profile where the internet has become unstable--it will disconnect every few seconds, and take a few seconds to connect.However, when I switch to my Microsoft Account profile, the internet is magically stable.I figured this was some sort of profile corruption, so I created a new local profile and it has the same disconnection issue.I can't use a Microsoft Account with my Windows Account because in the past year Microsoft automatically turned on OneDrive despite my best efforts to keep it off of my computer, causing a $10,000 security inciden

  3. Deleting old MS account profile photos

    Hello Paul,

    Are you referring to the local account profile picture? If you are, there's no automatic method of deleting profile picture. However, you can still remove unwanted profile pictures through
    Windows Explorer. Follow the steps below:

    • Select the Start button.
    • Copy and paste the path below and then press Enter.
      • %appdata%\Microsoft\Windows\AccountPictures
    • Delete the unwanted profile picture.

    Let us know if you require further assistance.

    Internet only stable on profile with MS account

    Lost default photo viewer after profile rebuild

    Thanks Brink. I've tried those steps before i started searching Google. After the profile rebuild i don't have the Photo app listed to choose to make it default in either the system settings for default apps or the Open With option.

    I can't even find it doing a search. Seems to have been removed somehow with the profile rebuild, which doesn't make sense.

    Might be helpful to list what i've done Internet only stable on profile with MS account :) I've done the open with check, the choose default program in the system menu, tried that in device manager default programs also. I've checked the programs and features Turn windows features on/off and it's not listed there (never thought it was but that was a suggestion), searched the MS Store, it's not listed there either.

    I don't like playing in the registry unless i have defined steps and haven't found anything for this yet, just the Win7 version like in my OP.
