  1. Unable to log in.


    Hi,

    I followed a youtube video which was helping me move my user folder to the D drive.

    I changed its saved location and then made a new user account.

    After I did that it logged me out and when I try log back in the message says “the user profile service failed to sign in, user profile can not be located”

    I have tried restarting, logging in on safe mode, nothing is working and it will not let me do anything.

    Please can anybody help.

    Thanks.

    :)

    3. Select add someone else on this PC.
    4. Enter a user name and hit next.
    5. Click on Finish.
    6. Sign out from the current Account and Log into the new account.
    Step 3:
    It could also happen because of network issue. I suggest you to try with different network connection and check if it helps.
