Hi,
It normally seen that user profiles on domain networks failed to load, or user can login but unable to perform any task, in other words you can say user profile become corrupt.
Mostly, IT professionals unjoined domain and joined again, some come up with fresh installations, these things can solve the issue but take too much time to make things available for user and in these case user's mostly lost few important data in such lengthy process.
Solution:
If you see above mentioned issues with the user either on Domain network or stand alone system, all you need to do is:
STEP-1
Login via Administrator ID
Goto Command Prompt. (cmd)
Type Regedit
Goto Hkey_Local_Machine\Microsoft\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
Then Locate the user with the corrupt profile, Right Click and press Rename and Add String "Problem" at the end. (Which help you finding this problematic profile later)
Log-Off
STEP-2
Login via user ID (which has problem)
You'll see that windows will configure new profile for the same user and take you to the New Desktop.
Goto Hkey_Local_Machine\Microsoft\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList and Then replace the new profile name of the user with the old one.
Log-Off
STEP-3
Login with the user ID and you'll have the same Desktop with all the same settings and configurations. :)
The Above steps will not take more then 7 minutes to restore machine to the previous state. please ask if more information required.
