    No active users/ computer looks “wiped”ish


    hi,


    i havent openee up my computer in months, maybe 4month, and i finally did today. As it booted up, it said “repairing drive” so i let it “repair”. Once booted up, it automatically signed in as Gamer, using an ASUS ROG G751, and no other user accounts to be found. However, i looked around and there are folders found on my Local E drive with the User accounts. Any idea how to fix this?

    :)

    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.

    Hi PE. I'm Greg, an installation specialist and 9 year Windows MVP, here to help you.

    Are there other accounts still showing in Settings > Accounts > Family & Other People?

    It's strange User accounts would be on any drive besides C. Please post a screenshot of Disk Management, which I read like a doctor reads X-rays. Follow the steps here so I can see everything needed to advise you:
