Can't Switch login accounts; gives error
Hello!
I recently purchased a lenovo aio computer. After allowing it to do all the updates, I wanted to add my daughter and another family member as users. I made their profiles and now when I try to login under their names it says " The User Profile Service service failed the sign-in. User profile cannot be loaded." I can still login under my name with no problem. I have searched the internet and tried modifying the registry as seems to be the standard protocol and that doesn't work. I've tried enabling users as admins instead of standard users. Tried adding and deleting them. And I did the bulk of this in safe mode. I've tried everything I can think of and nothing works. I really need separate user accounts so I can setup a separate account and install web filtering tools, etc. Only thing I can think of is to try and do a system reinstall from the control panel or perhaps use media creator to create a boot dvd and install a clean version without all the lenovo bloatware. I would rather not do that though. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Forgot to mention that I am doing this as a local account...not using a ms login email
