Windows 10: Win11 Profile Fails Sign-In, works after a reboot but is a significantly older Desktop

Came back from the weekend break and my new laptop gave me the "Profile Sign-In Failed" at bootup. I rebooted and it signed in successfully after giving me a short "Preparing Windows" message, only to find that the desktop that has been loaded is about 2 months old.System backup/restore was not enabled so I'm not even sure where this much older desktop came from. It's not a vanilla re-install as a handful of files are there but several gigs of new material is missing.With no set restore points that I'm aware of, is there any possibility of getting my desktop files from last week back? Will a

Win11 profile service service failed the sign-in

I just reset my Win11 to factory setting. Then I cannot login after putting in password. The problem I encountered was 'user profile service service failed the sign-in. '

I tried this method. Does not work. Redirecting. After reboot this message still show up.

Tried to reset again but result in black screen. And the problem is still there.

Any other possible ways to solve it?

 

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,

 

Snip & Sketch - saving to Desktop sometimes works and sometimes does Not work (Win11)

On Win11 Snip & Sketch sometimes copies from the clipboard to the desktop and sometimes does Not

copy to the Desktop. The failed copies are listed in the recent action list, but when accessed Win11 gives

the error that "file has been moved"....

So I went into Settings to check that "Autocopy to Clipboard" was On

I noticed that there was also a setting for "Save Snips" which gives a confirmation

box when doing a save - so I set this to On

Somehow confirming the save seems to have fixed the problem, adding a step is a drag, but

at least now snip & sketch has been working every time
