Windows 10: User file on wrong drive

I remember 3-4 years ago I tried to mess around where default downloads are saved and I think messed with the user file. So when I go to my C: drive and go to C: users, I dont see a file with my name on it, instead all I see are the files named "18083", "default" and "public". And when I check my D: drive there's a folder called "New Folder" and when I open the file, there I see a file with my name on it, and when I open it, it has the file called "18083", which is the file I just mentioned to be in my C: drive. This also relates to another problem I have about updating my pc and I think 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.

 

wrong user at startup

Hi, I appreciate the continued suggestions as to how to delete the unwanted user,
theco.

Note the screen shot following the net user command





the user i wish to delete " theco " is not listed....what would be the next step.....

Thanks

 

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!
