  1. Windows 11 randomly logs onto a new empty user.


    Here I will refer profiles as users.Sometimes when I boot up my PC, Windows doesn't automatically log onto the main user and stays at the login screen with a user that looks like the main user Same icon and name but is a completely new user with the default settings, new desktop, etc. This happens around every 3-5 days.- On normal days, Windows automatically logs onto my main user Called "Gebruiker".- On every 3-5 days, Windows stays at the login screen and only has 1 user available Looks like "Gebruiker" with the same icon and name which is a completely new user It looks like everythin

  2. New Account/User Issues

    Hi,

    When you create a new user account, Windows uses the Default user profile as a template to construct the files for the newly created user account. You might be experiencing issues creating new accounts due to a corrupt Default profile. To
    resolve the issue, we suggest reinstating the Default folder in the
    Users directory by following these steps:

    • Log in as an administrator.
    • Open the C:\Users folder using Windows Explorer.
    • Rename the Default user profile folder to Default.OLD.
    • Download a zip of C:\Users\Default from a Windows 10 installation that doesn't have this problem.
    • Unzip the non-corrupt Default profile into C:\Users.
    • Try logging in to the new user account and check if the problem is resolved.

    Let us know how it turns out.

  3. Windows 10 User Log-In Issue

    Hi,

    I apologize for not addressing you in a timely manner. Let me help you in resolving the issue.

    I would suggest you to delete all the user account apart from the one which you are able to log in with Admin rights. Install all pending Windows and driver updates.
    Updates are additions to software that can help prevent or fix problems, improve how your computer works, or enhance your computing experience. Follow the steps below to create new user account and check if that helps.

    • Press “Windows Key + R".
    • Type “netplwiz”.
    • Click on Add and follow the onscreen instructions.

    Keep us posted on Windows related queries and we will be happy to assist you further.
