    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.

  3. Public and personal user accounts

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    From the issue description, I understand that you want to retrieve your user account files which you mistakenly have hidden it.

    I suggest you to restore the settings to default and check if it helps. You may follow the steps below for the same.

    • Press Windows+E
    • Go to View in the file ribbon and select option
    • Select view on the prompt.
    • Click on the Restore default.
    • Select Apply and Ok.


    Hope it helps. Do let us know if the issue is resolved. For any further information, feel free to contact us.

    Thank you.

    why can't I see any users other than public

    KB3081444 does not install


    SOLVED!

    C:\Users <==> U:\ (separate users and system)

    The clue was the 0x80070001 return code from the installation. All is well.

    Steps:
    1. cd \users
    2. robocopy /mir /zb Public C:\Public
    3. regedit
      1. save HKLM
      2. search for \Users\Public, replace with \Public
      3. restart

    DONE. No update problem!

    [Now to re-do everything I customized and save another system image... and turn on backups on U:\ ...]
