  1. Why won't it let a new user login?


    I've got a new computer. I updated Windows, then tried adding a new Microsoft account user. It added successfully and windows said I'd need to have access to the Internet when they log inSo, I go back to the login screen, and when I select the new user and "sign in", the screen flashes a little, but won't give the user the ability to enter a password, it just goes back to the login screen. What am I doing wrong?

    :)

    Cannot Login with New User Account in Windows 10

    Hi,



    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.



    I understand your concern and will assist you to resolve this issue


    • What exactly happens when you try to login with new user account?

    • Are you getting any error message?

    • Since when are you facing this issue?


    I suggest you to Enable
    the built in Administrator account in Windows 10, and then try to create new user account and check if it helps.

    I suggest you to refer the steps below and check if it helps


    • Press Windows+ X, select
      Command Prompt
      , and then click Run as Administrator.

    • When you are prompted by User Account Control, click Continue.

    • At the command prompt, type net user administrator /active: yes, and then press Enter.

    • Type net user administrator
      <Password>
      , and then press Enter.

      Note In this command, <Password> represents the actual password that you want to set for the administrator account.

    • Type exit, and then press Enter.

    • Log off the current user account. And login and check whether your able to login to windows or not.


    Hope this information is helpful. Please write back to us if you need any further assistance, we'll be glad to assist you.

  3. Local user disappeared frin login options after upgrade

    Hi Zoee,

    Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, I was unable to fix the issue. Here are my steps:

    • I've uninstalled the last 3 updates (the ones from september):
      • however, they keep getting reinstalled:

    • I've added two new users: one from the GUI, the other as you suggested in step 2:
      • They are listed under users;
    • I've also booted in safe mode just to check.
    I still have no way to login other than with the main account. No local users are available at login or when I go to start menu and click on my user.

    Please advise

    Why won't it let a new user login?

    Cannot create a new user account that can be login.

    Michelle, I followed exactly all your steps and when in Safe Mode login to the new user account, the same error message about profile service failure appeared. What do you suggest next.
