    Can't update to TH2 after upgrading from PRO to ENTERPRISE...


    Since I changed the product key from Windows 10 Pro to Enterprise:


    • Can't update to TH2
    • Can't reinstall Enteprise or Pro ISO's, keeping personal files (this option is disabled because ..."you are installing a different version of Windows").

    So now I have a unknown-hybrid version? *Confused

  3. Windows 10 seems to have upgraded itself from Home to Enterprise

    Hi,

    Normally, the enterprise version is only offered to businesses or organization to better manage multiple computers. While it is not common for Windows 10 home to upgrade to Windows 10 Enterprise without doing anything, we would like to ask a couple of questions
    so we can identify why the Windows version has suddenly changed. Please answer the following:

    • What build and version of Windows 10 are you currently running? Please type
      winver
      in the Windows Search bar and provide us the screenshot.
    • Was the laptop purchased from a retail store or was initially used in a business establishment?
    • Have you installed updates or made changes to the computer settings prior to the issue?

    We hope to hear from you soon.

    User.000 issue after updating to 1909

    I'm one of the many people suffering from issues with user profiles after applying Update 1909 to Windows 10. I've read all the threads I can find on the topic here and have followed the suggestions, all to no avail. Any other thoughts are appreciated.

    After applying Update 1909, the ProfileImagePath was changed to c:\users\User.000
    One file that was always in use and couldn't be removed was left in c:\users\User (can't recall or find the exact file now), so I could never rename or remove the c:\user\User directory.

    I followed the multiple suggestions from Brink and others:
    • Rebooted at least 6 times
    • Enabled hidden Administrator
    • Booted into Safe Mode
    • Changed ProfileImagePath
    • Tried to rename c:\users\User but couldn't because a file was still in use
    • Copied all data from c:\users\User.000 into c:\users\User
    • Rebooted and had temporary profile
    • Followed steps in Brink tutorial to change ImageProfilePath; rebooted with no change
    • Restored using Restore Point from before Update 1909 - returned to single profile state (User.000)
    • Removed each update that was installed individually and rebooted after each update removal - profile state never changed
    • After all updates were removed, repeated the steps above with hidden Administrator, changing profile, etc. - same issue with file in use in c:\users\User
    • Followed all steps above with hidden Administrator but without copying files from User.000 to User - same results

    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
