Windows 10: User Profile Switched on its own

I recently signed on to my Dell All in One PC and noticed that my wallpaper and desktop were no longer what they were before. After more searching I saw that all the user folders Pictures, Documents, etc were all empty as if this were a new account. So i checked the C://Users and saw that a new profile had been created and there is no way for me to get to the old one. I tried to copy the files from the old to the new with no success because I do not have enough space on hard drive. is there any other way for me to get to use my original with all of my needed files etc? Not certain if PC was

Switch User Profiles in Windows 10

Hello Amy CarolHunter,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

Windows has a concept of Switch User in which multiple users can share one device and work on it. If you are sharing your PC with another person, ensure that you have saved all open documents to keep it secure. To know the list of accounts present
on your PC, you can press Windows + R keys and type netplwiz and click
OK. It will help you with the list of account entries.

If you have more than one user account on your PC and want to switch between users, kindly follow the steps listed below and see if it helps.

Method 1: To Switch User from Start Menu.

When you click on the Start menu, tap on your user name and click on the user account you want to switch. For better understanding, you may refer to an article on -
How to switch users (accounts) in Windows 10.


Method 2: Switch User from Classic Shut Down Windows Dialog.

• Click on the empty space on your Desktop and press
  Alt + F4 keys.
  
• ‘Shut Down Windows’ dialog opens, select Switch user from the list and click on
  OK.
  
• Else, you can press Ctrl + Alt + Del keys on your keyboard and select
  Switch user.
  

Let us know how it goes. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

The User Profile Service service failed the sign-in. User profile cannot be loaded.

Hello,

When attempting to login to my computer, I get the following message:

"The User Profile Service service failed the sign-in.

User profile cannot be loaded."

I referred to this Help article,You receive a "The User Profile Service failed the logon” error
message,

but the only difference is I only have one user profile on this computer. So, I can't login with another user to go through the steps listed in this post.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
