temporary profile
I took the plunge and upgraded my computer with 6 gigs RAM and a dual core 3.0 athlon x64 cpu so I could install Win 10. Was running Win 7. Downloaded the ISO to a flash drive. Installed Win 10 ver.1703. Updated my drivers. All seemed to go well. I used it all day. Rebooted several times with no problems. The next day when I booted up it goes to a temporary account. Can't access anything. Restarting like it says to do doesn't help. Got online with my old trusty XP laptop to find an answer. There were quite a few but none work. The only solution is to reinstall the OS. Then it happens again and again and again etc. I tried making a backup of my OS with Macrium Reflect after I get the OS installed and running good. Then when I get the temp account, I use my backup image to restore the OS, but it still boots to the temp account. Tried altering the registry using command prompt (admin) to change users and a few other solutions but no go. I give up. I've been trying to find an answer for the past two months. I have to reinstall the OS every time I want to use the computer with win 10. Why does the computer with a new OS installed boot to a temporary account AFTER a shutdown? Rebooting with the new OS is not a problem, it's after a complete shutdown that the problem exists. Thanks guys for any help.
