Open a command prompt as it says, then paste that command string. You need to follow the instructions.

To use Powershell you have to modify the command string.

I did.
Instruction says: Open Windows PowerShell.

B) Copy and paste the command below in PowerShell, and press Enter. (see screenshots below)

That's exactly what I did.

Anyway, tried creating new user and had this problem there too. Will try to resetting Windows now.

There are two sections in the tutorial - Option 1, Option 2.
The command comes from Option 2.
The instructions for Option 2 are to use the Command prompt.

The instructions for Option 1 are to use Powershell.

If unclear, I suggest you print the tutorial.

Resetting Windows fixed it.

There are much less destructive methods if you want to use a sledgehammer:
a. use system restore- if you're lucky enough to have an appropriate restore point and restoring succeeds.
b. perform an in-place upgrade repair install which keeps all progs and data.
c. use disk imaging routinely, and restore a disk image, assuming you can cope with any disturbance to your data on the restored partition(s)

Thank you. From now I will be using backups of disk images.
