    Net user returns "... completed with one or more errors."


    I read about the net user command, and wanted to try it. When I entered it in an elevated command prompt, it returned the following. I take it the part about "The command completed with one or more errors." is not normal.

    How can I go about fixing this?

    Thanks

    windows 10 error 80073712

    Thank you for the suggestion, however the problem persists. The first set of commands returned the message "No component corruption detected" and that it had completed successfully. The second set of commands completed successfully. On reboot the same
    problem came up. It said that I needed the .NET 3.5 and when I download and install it does not complete and says the "component store has been corrupted" even thought the first set of commands returned no corruption. It still shows error code 0x80073712.
    Any other suggestions?

    Net user returns "... completed with one or more errors."

    That indicates that one of the user profiles is somewhat damaged. A typical output of simple net user command just lists the present user profiles:

    Personally I've never got an error when only listing users. What about your personal user profile, does that underscore at the end of your username belong to your username?

    Thanks for you reply.

    That makes sense, I assumed that it must indicate a corrupt user profile...

    Yes, when I originally installed Windows 10, I used my email address, which does have an underscore after my first name. In the meantime, I switched to a local account, but I kept the username mike_.

    I have also enabled the default Administrator account. It shows up as available at logon.

    And I haven't noticed any other issues. Everything seems to work, but apparently there is some corruption of one or more user profiles.

    What next steps can I take to try to correct it?

    If everything works, there is no need to "fix" anything.

    You could try one thing: disable the built-in admin account and run net user in an elevated Command Prompt again, to see if the error remains.
     
  7. oxonsi Win User
    I will try disabling the Admin account.

    I agree: why try to "fix" something that isn't broken? At the same time, why does it return "completed with one or more errors"? That is the kind of thing that will bother me, feeling like there is a "skeleton in the closet" somewhere that I just haven't fully discovered yet...

    Thanks for the info.

    Net user returns "... completed with one or more errors."

    Unfortunately, disabling the Admin account did not resolve the issue. Strange.

    Let me know if you have any further thoughts. Thanks again.

    Did delete your computer name from that line for privacy? If not, the error could be there. Your computer's name should appear after the \\
     
  10. oxonsi Win User
    No, as a matter of fact I did not delete my computer name. That probably is at least one of my problems.

    Any idea how I can correct that? Thanks!

    The error message said 'one or more problems'. You may have only the one.

    Try renaming it.
    Settings > System > About
     
  12. oxonsi Win User
    Right, I was getting lazy. Probably should have stated, "that is my problem, or at least one of my problem(s)"... Logic *Smile

    When I attempt to rename, I receive the message, "The PC name is invalid." no matter what name I choose. And if I enter the current name, it tells me I need to choose a different name.

    It certainly appears there is a problem with my PC's name. Any idea how I might remedy that?

    Net user returns "... completed with one or more errors."

    You could try the other ways to change the PC's name.
    Computer Name - Change in Windows 10


    And you can change it in the Registry. Worth looking there to see if the current values are corrupted.

    This should work:

    1.) Create a new local user account, name it as you wish. I use username Dummy1 here. Make this account an administrator account.

    2.) Sign out from your normal user account, sign in to the new Dummy1 account.

    3.) Open an elevated Command Prompt, disable all existing user accounts except the new one you are currently signed in with following command:
    Code: net user USERNAME /active:no[/quote]
    4.) Press WIN + R to open Run prompt, type following command and hit Enter:
    Code: %windir%\system32\Sysprep\Sysprep.exe /oobe /reboot[/quote]
    5.) This runs Sysprep forcing Windows to go through the initial OOBE (Windows Welcome Mode, setup) again, generating a new PC name. You will go through the normal OOBE and need to create an initial user account. You cannot use any username already existing in system, I use Dummy2 at this point.

    6.) When on desktop of Dummy2, open elevated Command Prompt and re-activate your temporarily disabled old user account with following command:

    Code: net user USERNAME /active:yes[/quote]
    7.) Sign out from Dummy2, sign in to your old, normal admin account

    8.) Remove Dummy1 and Dummy2 accounts
    That's it. I'll bet your NET USER command will return no more errors.

    BTW, although I am extremely familiar with Sysprep and how it can be used (no bragging, just stating a fact) I would never run it on an existing installation without creating a system image backup first. The above instructions will work but in case you come back telling you can't boot anymore after following the instructions, I will tell you to restore the systsme image you made before proceeding.

    If at that point you tell me you don't have a system image, you can only blame yourself. My only response to that would be "Tough!".

    The above flow of actions takes 3 to 5 minutes, not counting the time to backup your system first.

    @Kari, isn't the net user message "The command completed with one or more errors." referring to not being able to display the computer's name? It may not be referring to a problem with the user accounts at all. We've now established that oxonsi cannot rename the PC.
