  1. Windows restarts and creates a new user file every month


    Each month or whenever I restart my computer, a new temporary file is created, I lose most of my desktop icons and have to reenter information on several programs like facebook to access them. I get into my email by logging into the account again and can see my emails, but I have to reenter all my addresses. Also, I have to search in several of the temporary files to find where the desktop info is stored, where my documents are located as well as other files and pictures. I have tried to delete the old temp files but cannot. One drive seems to be involved with this problem too. Several of th

    Hi Richard,

    Thank you for your interest in Windows 10.

  4. Windows restarts and creates a new user file every month

    I can't create a New User Profile that is Not Corrupt! Please Help!

    Hi,

    I realize the inconvenience you are facing in creating the new user profile on your device. Do not worry we will help you with this issue.

    As a work around, I suggest you to enable the built-in administrator account, log-in with the admin account to create a new user profile and check if you are able to check. This will let us know if the issue persists with user account or the operating system.

    Step 1: Follow the steps to enable Built-in admin account.

    Enable Built-in administrator.

    • Press Windows + X key together on your desktop screen.
    • Click on Command Prompt (admin) to open
      Command Prompt
      .
    • Type the following command and hit Enter:
    • net user administrator /active: yes (Check for the spaces)
    4. Now log off from the current user and try to login to the administrator account that is enabled.  

    Note: Please follow the same steps and type net user administrator /active: no to disable admin account after the troubleshooting is done. 

    Step 2: Refer to the articles to create a test user account/ Microsoft account respectively.

    For Local account: Create a local user account in Windows 10

    For Microsoft account: Help with Microsoft account


    Hope it helps. Get back to us with an updated status of creating new user profile for further assistance.

    Thank you.
