Brink, I followed the link in the above post. I go through step one and on
to option 1 through step 6 B, I never completed step 6 C or any steps beyond
that. Then I had to leave and my husband said I probably needed to start
over so I closed everything and restarted the computer, then amazingly when I
attempted to log in at my administrator account with the same password, it
let me in, looks like I lost my settings but I am in. My query is this,
without having completed the final steps (6C and on) have I screwed up
something else ?? Also I copied the numbers from the jpeg images exactly as
they were shown, was that correct ? Any assistance or passing of knowledge
would be so appreciated. Thanks for your time. D

Hi D,

NO, you didn't mess anything up. You just didn't finish. Your settings
will most likely be in the user profile in step 6C with the "bak" at the
end of it. You can just go back and double check what you alread have
done and then finish up to have it back the way it was. That's all.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Hi, all I have similar problem.

Though the issue is Admin account works OK just I can't activate Guest
or additional user account and get the same message. I have check
registry and everything appears OK, ie. no .Bak file. Also none of
the guest profile or user profile aside from administrator profile
appears registered?? I'm running a new Toshiba and it has the
fingerprint reader could it be something to do with that? (long
shot..)

any advice appreciated

Jim
