Windows 10: Unable to login to Windows 10 because there are no profiles available for selection

Greetings,


I am currently unable to login to any of my Windows 10 profiles.


Replication steps: turn on PC, arrive at logon screen, attempt to CTRL+ ALT + Del or mouse click to bring up user profiles. Once either of those actions are performed the time on the logon screen goes away. Only the 3 icons at the bottom right are available for selection for a few moments until the regular time appears again on screen.


If I put the PC into safe mode I can login and all of my files are available.


I have tried the start up repair,

ran a system restore,

turning off selective boot,

turning off a fuzzy background type setting in the registry

enabled the credential manager to start automatically..


None of these things have helped.


It's almost like when I try to engage with the screen it is acting like it is bringing up the login window but it is not.


Is there something that will fix this quickly or am I looking at an Operating system re-install?

:)

Windows 10 temporary profile error?

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

As per the issue description you are facing issue in editing some settings from a temporary profile. You need to login to your original (Administrator) profile to change those settings.

I would suggest you to change the account type to administrator, if it is not and see if it helps. Try the steps provided below to change the account type.

• Login with the temporary profile.
• Press Windows key + X.
• Select Control Panel from the list.
• Select Large icons from the view by drop down menu.
• Click on User Accounts.
• Click on Change Account type.
• Select Administrator radio button and click OK.

Hope this would help. If issue still persists post back with current status of your computer and result of the proposed suggestion, we will be happy to assist you.

Regards,

 

Unable to log-in to computer with error: "The User Profile Service failed login, User profile cannot be loaded" on Windows 10

Hi Ellen,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community, we appreciate your interest in Windows 10.

I understand the inconvenience caused to you with the user accounts on Windows 10.

Do let us know the type of user account this issue is confined with?

This issue might have occurred due to corrupted user profile,
User Profile Service or Group Policy Client service stopped working, or Antivirus software conflicts.

Method 1: I suggest you enter into safe mode and enable built-in administrator and check with the status of User profile service.


Step 1: Start computer in safe mode.

• Type Settings in the search box on the desktop, select
  Settings.
• Here select Change pc settings and then General.
• Scroll down to Advanced startup, click Restart now.
  
• Click on Troubleshoot, Advanced options, and Startup Settings.
• Click Restart, select Safe mode and then press
  Enter.

Step 2: Enable Built-in administrator.

• Press Windows + X key together on your desktop screen.
• Click on Command Prompt (admin) to open Command Prompt.
• Type the following command and hit Enter:

• net user administrator /active: yes (Check for the spaces)

　4. Now log off from the current user and try to login to the administrator account that is enabled.　　

Note: Please follow the same steps and type net user administrator /active: no to disable admin account after the troubleshooting is done.　

Method 2: Check the status of User profile services.

Steps:

• Press Windows + R to open Run command, type
  Services.msc and press Enter.
• Search for User Profile Service, right click on it and
  start the service.
• Also, set the Startup type to Automatic.
• Now check if you are able to log-in.

if the issue still persists,

Method 3: From Built-in admin account, try to create a new user account (Local account) and check access the computer

You will have to create those local accounts on Windows 10 and provide the corresponding administrative privileges.

Refer to: Create a local user account in Windows 10

(Applies to Windows 10 as well)

Hope it helps. Reply to the post with an updated status of this issue for further assistance.
