SearchUI.exe stop working when move AppData/local
Hello!
Months ago I moved my user folder C:\Users\<my_user_folder> to a new location using a director junction.
- First of all I created a new user
- I copied the user folder with xcopy to E:\C_DRIVE\Users\<my_user_folder>
- I created a directory junction with mklink /J
It worked like a charm for months.
three days ago, after a small update, I don't remember which update was, Start menu stopped working. I noticed, that SearchUI.exe is not present in the task manager.
Seems that all app from SystemApps failed to load (checking Windows Event log, all the apps didn't start with an error code).
The funny thing is that if I create a new user (admin or not) on C:\Users, start button and apps work well. As soon as I move them to the new drive with the just described procedure, they stop working!
I tried also moving only AppData/Local and AppData/Local/Packages and in both case, only moving those folders cause the problem,
does anyone experienced the same problem? has anyone any idea on how to solve it?
Thanks!
