NOTE: Go down the list here until you find a option that will work for you.

1. Logon to another Administrator account. NOTE: If you do not have another Administrator account, then proceed to step 2.

A) Go to the STEP TWO section below.

2. Boot into Safe Mode. NOTE: You may not need to enable the built-in Administrator account. If this was

the only normal administrator account you had, then Safe Mode should

automatically boot into the built-in Administrator account. See: How to Start Vista

in Safe Mode

A) If Safe Mode did not, then enable the Built-in Administrator

account. If it did , then go to step 2C.

NOTE: See: How to Enable or Disable the Real Built-in

Administrator Account in Vista

B) Logoff, and logon to the Built-in Administrator account.

C) Go to the STEP TWO section below.

STEP TWO

1. Delete the User account profile that this error is for, but do not delete the C:\User\(user-name) folder at step 4 in that link.

Warning

You should backup anything you do not want to lose in this user account personal

folders first. (See note in step 10) They will be located at: C:\Users\(username)

2. Open the Start menu.

3. In the white line (Start Search) area, type regedit and press Enter.

4. If prompted, click on Continue in the UAC prompt.

5. In regedit, go to: (See screenshot below step 7)

Code:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Pro

6. In the left pane, click on one of the S-1-5..... folders (SID key) with the long number in it. (See screenshot below step 7)

NOTE: It should have .bak at the end of it.

A) In the right pane, look at the ProfileImagePath to see if this is the

same user account that you deleted in step 1 above.

B) Repeat step 6 until you find the one that you deleted in step 1 above.

7. To Backup the Registry SID Key - WARNING: You should backup this SID key to be safe in case you delete the wrong

one in step 8 below.

A) Right click on the SID key, and click on Export.

B) Type in a name and save the REG file to a safe location.

NOTE: This is your backup. To Restore the Backup, right click on the

REG backup file and click on Merge.

8. To Delete the Registry SID Key -

A) Right click on the SID key, from step 6 with bak at the end, and click

on Delete. (See screenshot above)

B) Click on Yes to confirm deletion. (See screenshot below)

9. Close regedit.

10. Log off and log on. NOTE: After you logon to the computer, the profile folder you are having problems

with is re-created. If not, then try a System Restore using a restore point dated before you got this error. If this still dows not help, then you will need to create a

new account and restore the user folder files afterwards from the warning in step 1.

Hi Shaze,

As long as it is letting you logon without any problems, it will be ok.

See this other related tutorial below to reference also to see if this was the problem you had instead

of this one here.

Hi Swaye, and welcome to Vista Forums.

It can happen from some unknown reasons, but usually can happen when the C:\Users\(user

name) folder gets renamed or deleted. While this is not a problem that happens usually, it can

happen again since part of why it happens is unknown.

Hope this helps,

Shawn

Yes it does and I am grateful that you were here to help. I was not looking forward to re-installing

vista. Your answer does precipitate another question. Is Microsoft doing anything to correct this particular problem??? Thank you...

You're welcome Swaye,

Well, I suppose that they did place this solution in a KB article at the top of the tutorial, but I do not

know if they are doing anything else.

Fortunately I've found this topic. I got the same problem like this since I renamed the folder in

Linux accidentally and changed it back again right after.

Then when I logged in Vista with temp profile, I couldn't even open my profile folder "C:\users\srap

not accessible. The file or folder is corrupted and unreadable" even though I can access to it in

Linux.

My profile is sort of huge thing with lots of stuff so I'm very afraid of restore them all after. Is there anything else I could do in this case? And my profile hasn't been changed a bit.

Thank you to write this tut for us.

Srap.

Hi Srap,

Welcome to Vista Forums.

You might try Option One in this tutorial below instead to see if it can restore the user profile to the

way it was.


Hope this helps,

Thanks, Brink.

I'll try to do this and post a result. I don't know exactly what could be an explaination for this. I

could open the folder Srap under NTFS Pro with a Hiren BootCD or in Linux, but not in Vista. Have

to use Linux right now.

Edit: No help for whatever methods. I think I need to rename folder Srap by BootCD, then re-

create this profile by deleting SID, and finally copy it back. Maybe I'll lose some info but it could be

the best way now.
