    This did not work, BUT a few other users in a thread in the comments helped.
    1) Delete “bak”, and leave the .
    2) Delete the other one
    3) Leaving the . Sign out
    4) Go back, repeat, delete the other one and delete the . from the “right” one
    5) Sign out and viola!!

      It also doesn't work for me. After swapping out the old SSD from my laptop with a new one, I installed Windows 11 on the fresh SSD. Subsequently, I connected the old SSD, which had Windows 10 installed, as an external drive to my Windows 11 laptop and deleted some files from its desktop. Later, when I reinstalled the Windows 10 SSD into my laptop and attempted to boot it up, I found myself logged into a temporary profile

    Followed these steps verbatim twice and it doesn't work, the .bak and temp registries get added back after signing in again. Seeing all the positive responses, I figured this was the final frontier, but I guess somehow, something in my computer is messing up. This is the first time that Windows 10 is truly pissing me off :/

    Hey, glad this helped for everyone else, but sadly I just got re-booted to the temp file I deleted the key for. Checked the reg editor and sure enough, the key and the .bak are back.
    This may be because my computer is from 2016 and is very well on its way out, NOT a fault of the tutorial or person who made it. I think I just have to accept that I need to save up for a new one. It’ll take forever and a day but I think that’s the only option I have left.

      Yeah I try keep videos as short as possible. People stretch videos out to like 12 minutes for no reason, particularly in tech videos. I feel like that is disrespectful to the viewer's time. If someone is trying to solve a computer problem, they are probably in a hurry. It's good to get them the information as clear and fast as possible.

      This theory didn’t work for me. I got it working though.
      I restarted my computer in safe mode and selected a option that reinstalled Windows 10 keeping files. It re installed windows and kept all my files (but in some obscure folder, had to go searching for it)
      After it reinstalled windows , you get back into your normal account but all the items on your desktop are deleted. Like if you have any movie editing software or media player, it will delete it and you’ll have to download all your downloaded software again to open your files.

    SOLVED: This issue happened to me last night. I almost cried. I watched many videos and comments and eventually solved it by following these steps:
    1. Delete the file with no bak extension
    2. Rename the file with ".bak" by erasing "bak" but leave the "."
    3. Sign out and sign in again.
    4. Repeat steps 1 and 2 above but erase the "." this time.
    5. Sign out and sign in again and Voila!! You'll successfully logged into your user account but all your app settings would be lost. And when you restart PC issue persists again. To solve this.
    6 Go to settings and find restore points. Click on show more restore points. Set your PC to a restore point about a week or 2 weeks ago. Wait about 15 minutes for your PC to roll back to the selected restore point. Voila!! No more issue when pc restarts. You can now log in successfully and all app settings restored.
