I have a problem that I've been unsuccessful in searching for a solution to.
I recently had to create a new admin profile in Vista because my single admin profile that I always use had the following error: "Your user profile was not loaded correctly! You have been logged on with a temporary profile."
I tried a bunch of fixes, but the only solution to getting my profile back (somewhat) was to create a new profile and copy the files from the old one to the new one. For some reason this worked, but I did have to change a few settings in the new profile that didn't stick (internet defaults, autofill, outlook settings, things of that nature). I deleted the old profile via the "delete this profile" option in user accounts. When I go into the user accounts area, it no longer shows the old profile that I deleted. However, when I shutdown my computer and restart it tries to load the deleted profile. I have to click on "switch user accounts" in order to log on to my new profile. Other solutions I've found tell me to set a default auto login but that isn't what I'm trying to do. I want to associate my new profile as the default profile. I can see that some of my settings aren't sticking so I imagine that it's because this isn't the default. Maybe there is something in the registry that needs to be deleted as well? I just want there to be no trace of the other user profile. It's no longer needed or necessary.
Any solutions? Any help is much appreciated.
