  1. Is it possible to turn off s mode for individual users on a laptop


    HI

    Having bought a new laptop i am having issues with s mode restricting zoom and netflix party, however good for the security with the kids.


    is it possible to turn off for only adult user account on the laptop rather than all the accounts on the laptop?


    Thanks


    Josh

    :)

    Can't start individual programs in safe mode


    The next step would be to download Autoruns for Windows from Microsoft.

    It will tell you everything that starts automatically (but you can subset by drivers, log-on items etc by picking the relevant tab).

    The most obvious thing to do would be to go to Everything and then on the Options tab tick Hide Microsoft Entries

    You can then turn things off and on from there.

    Is it not possible to share individual sub-folder under \Users?


    Do you have public folder sharing turned on? If so, turn it off.

    User.000 issue after updating to 1909

    I'm one of the many people suffering from issues with user profiles after applying Update 1909 to Windows 10. I've read all the threads I can find on the topic here and have followed the suggestions, all to no avail. Any other thoughts are appreciated.

    After applying Update 1909, the ProfileImagePath was changed to c:\users\User.000
    One file that was always in use and couldn't be removed was left in c:\users\User (can't recall or find the exact file now), so I could never rename or remove the c:\user\User directory.

    I followed the multiple suggestions from Brink and others:
    • Rebooted at least 6 times
    • Enabled hidden Administrator
    • Booted into Safe Mode
    • Changed ProfileImagePath
    • Tried to rename c:\users\User but couldn't because a file was still in use
    • Copied all data from c:\users\User.000 into c:\users\User
    • Rebooted and had temporary profile
    • Followed steps in Brink tutorial to change ImageProfilePath; rebooted with no change
    • Restored using Restore Point from before Update 1909 - returned to single profile state (User.000)
    • Removed each update that was installed individually and rebooted after each update removal - profile state never changed
    • After all updates were removed, repeated the steps above with hidden Administrator, changing profile, etc. - same issue with file in use in c:\users\User
    • Followed all steps above with hidden Administrator but without copying files from User.000 to User - same results

    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
