User Account Messed up after Upgrade
I was working on a friend's PC yesterday and could not get a windows update to install.This update was a upgrade from v1909 Build 18363.628 to the latest v19041.450.I used the Microsoft Windows 10 Update Assistant to do this upgrade finally after the windows updates failed to install after multiple attempts.
After running the tool it successfully upgraded to the latest v19041.450.Now here is where my problems started.My buddy has 3 User accounts on this windows 10 PC.The first one is his which upgraded fine but the second one is his wife's user account and this one is giving me problems.For some reason now after the upgrade it was taking 4 minutes for all the system tray icons to load completely.Her user account used to fly before the upgrade and now its so slow and a pain in the but to navigate and run things.Shortcut icons on the bottom taskbar turned white and would not work anymore and could not be unpinned.I also ran chkdsk, sfc/scannow,and dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth after to no avail with zero results.
The last user account is my buddies kid's account and this one upgraded fine like the first account with no issues.Wondering now as to what route I should take to fix this messed up user account and make it work fine again.Should I back up the stuff on it and then remove it and create a New User account and put her stuff back on it.
If anyone has any ideas on how I should go about fixing this please let me know for I am running out of ideas..Thanks..
