  1. Windows Profile broken?


    Recently updated desktop windows 10 and the data seems to have become jumbled? Whilst apps like Edge can be opened Microsoft store, photos etc cannot open, do not appear in task manager and do not seem to exist in files. Desktop background was reset and all files are deleted when clicked through normal files but they exist inside the users folder. Computer still says it is signed into the regular account despite all this. Is there any way to fix this and return it back to its previous form?

    :)

    Lost default photo viewer after profile rebuild

    Thanks Brink. I've tried those steps before i started searching Google. After the profile rebuild i don't have the Photo app listed to choose to make it default in either the system settings for default apps or the Open With option.

    I can't even find it doing a search. Seems to have been removed somehow with the profile rebuild, which doesn't make sense.

    Might be helpful to list what i've done Windows Profile broken? :) I've done the open with check, the choose default program in the system menu, tried that in device manager default programs also. I've checked the programs and features Turn windows features on/off and it's not listed there (never thought it was but that was a suggestion), searched the MS Store, it's not listed there either.

    I don't like playing in the registry unless i have defined steps and haven't found anything for this yet, just the Win7 version like in my OP.

    Windows Profile broken?

    Fan control for 4870X2 broken in 1.17

    Fixed fan controls yes. Annoying profiles yes. Buggy code yes.

    I'd rather just set it and forget it as the feature list of RBE suggested it was capable of doing.
