Bro, I'm from Brazil. I swear I'm crying I now and praying for God to bless your soul forever. You just saved all my college materials and works (and I have a test tomorrow!). Thanks!
Unfortunately it didn’t work, have been doing that three times and it keep showing the same problem,and each time a new temp profile is created in the profile list, isn’t there any other solution?
@@fastLinkNgthe curropted profile is the .bak so click on that profile and click on profileimagepath and copy the user text and go to the temporary profile without the .bak and rename the profileimagepath to what you copied earlier.And delete the .bak profile and restart your pc..it should solve the problem :)
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 :/
I was so happy after reading the comment, but after following this process. It did. Ot work for me. It still logged me in the same Temporary profile. Even after I deleted and renamed the files. My issue is still not resolved.
I have a class tomorrow and just got back from a trip to find this issue. This video not only saved my job but also my sanity. The clarity and easiness of these explanations are second to none. Really appreciate it!!!
Dude I had a mild heart attack when this happened just now. So many photos of my grandfather and recently deceased pet on my laptop. Thought it reset on me. You have saved my Sunday ;) Thanks
Damn!!!! I literally spent 3-4 hours fixing this issue and here he explained it in 2 mins what I needed to do. God bless you. Thankyou for saving my life. I was about to have a panic attack!!!
I screamed so hard after my computer rebooted. Everything I thought I lost this weekend came right back up. I'm shaking right now. I don't have the words. Subbed.
* Important note * : Please read To all the people coming here with this issue : This is a good solution & will fix your problem but never ever shut down or restart or do not take this windows update in a fun way , this can lead to very serious malfunction to your windows os and that's what cause this problem , your windows os gets corrupted during updating if you misbehave with your pc during update Be responsible while updating your windows os , that's all have a nice day : )

@@buensalidaaraminau.4798 yes! That’s what I did accidentally did! For me I had to do a system restore too because my taskbar disappeared as well. I did this and everything including my files and apps came back!
@@tatsumikatsuki4387 hi, it's been a while since you commented this, but this is not working for me, I clicked the sign out button before watching the video and restarted, I tried the method in the video and it's not working at all, so can you please help me if you know how to restore my things? Please!!
It didn't work for me either. I checked another video and the step they added was to make sure the data value of State is 0, mine had been set at 8000 so when I changed that and restarted all was well
Hey…I had to reset my laptop after that all the data has been lost, I installed google chrome and signed in but it always pause and I can’t sign in on my laptop what is the problem?
This actually worked when I didn't expect it to! Thank you sincerely for saving over 500GB of files! If this doesn't work, you likely either have a more severe issue and you should find a technology place to diagnose your PC, or you didn't properly follow these steps. Be extremely careful when doing this, because if you accidently delete your user in RegEdit (shown as a .bak file in the video), you will permanently lose your profile and access to your files!
@@ardon7340 Actually, I forgot to edit this comment, it worked once then back to same. I had to delete that account make a new one and then make it local admin. I did a mistake, don't delete before you have transferred your stuff from C,. U will lost most of them, so transfer then make new account local admin. Hope it helps 👍
Yo bro can you tell me if even once it worked?? Coz when i tried it didn't even worked after i rebooted I signed out and sigbed in again but no good Do you know what should i do??
@@ragexmafia3572 I am not exactly sure, I think some of my files in C were retained while others deleted. I think data which is saved in your account folder like files in Video picture music etc are deleted. Just to he sure backup the photos videos etc on D the. Change account. And yes it did work, nust need a new account.
I just want to hug you so badly right now! I was crying of how angry I was that I couldn’t log in… I’m glad I found this. I was able to not only log in and find all my old files too..thank you so much for this.
hey, at the end, I press enter. Then, I restart my computer, and then it does the same thing. I go back to the regedit, and the .bak and other account is STILL there, HELPPP!
I really tried following the video instructions and it wasn't working out, I gave up until I got referred by a cousin of mine to a security hacker. You also can contact him on 415 890 9523. If you wanna get any of your problems solved...
If you want to save your files then go to c:/ users select your username then go to desktop copy all your desktop files and save them to any other disk like c or d as backup. And when your signout problem is gone then past them in your desktop. Hope this solves your data problem....
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.
hi I'm having the same issue tried it twice and it didn't work I've has this computer since December 2023 so its not even that ive had it for long so I'm not sure what to do
This helped a lot, thank you. After numerous attempts of trying to find a solution to my problem, which was my original profile not showing up at all, your video helped me come to a solution.
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.
Thank you for saving me big time. I can not think straight, my hands were shaking. Thankfully,I saw your video and tried to calm myself then heartily followed your instructions. You rock !! 🙌
I swear i was gonna throw my computer out the window this fixed my issue in like five minutes, 7 years later and this video still helps people thank you so much
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.
Mckinley Petalver Yeah, your music will stay. But if you’ve downloaded any other media players apart from the ones already on the computer then you will have to re download them.
Bro you are a lifesaver I’ve been trying to figure out where to get it checked out at for months and your video just walked me through it so simple , thank you 🙏
I had to submit my project work for my engineering degree in a couple of days from now, and this happened today. I almost started to cry. Thank you soo much for this video man. You are literally a lifesaver.
Mine didn't have a .bak file and I just deleted the temp profile one and it locked me out of using the home button and it removed my pinned items from my task bar, does anyone know what to do ?
A windows update failure almost destroyed my machine, but this was a much welcomed fix. Thank you so much my friend. Now to get it running more like a 280 Z and less like a Ford Maverick. Lol.
I've followed the steps and delete the ".bak" and the temp profile folder, after i restart my computer it makes another one :( Please help i've been trying to fix this for the past 2 weeks.
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.
i fucked up and restarted my pc before doing step 3 now my computer has asked me the starter questions when first getting the pc and the user things have the regular one (with no information when i click on it) and one with “_Classes” at the end
August 2020, this still works! I can't say how much i'm thankful for this video, because man i thought i lost everything. Thank you so much for making this video!
I know you've heard it a ton but Thank you, you are awesome. I was following a microsoft help forum before i got to the delete file part. If i had listened to it I would have deleted my original path file. Major props and thank you once again
Thank You. I was installing mods for my game. Had an infinite loading screen, so force shut down, had a heart attack when I saw that screen. Thanks to you My files are ok and So is my game.
My machine was working good until today. I turned it On and all my icons were Gone. And did some research and found your video and what you describe is what I was experiencing and it worked like a charm thank you so much.
This didn't work for me. After reboot I have the same error message. And when I try again the profile with the .bak has returned. I am wondering if I should delete an additional key possibly. Would you mind taking a look if I send you a screenshot of my ProfileList?
Thank you so much, i almost had a heart attack of stress

Bro you are a lifesaver I’ve been trying to figure out where to get it checked out at for months and your video just walked me through it so simple , thank you 🙏
I had to submit my project work for my engineering degree in a couple of days from now, and this happened today. I almost started to cry.
Thank you soo much for this video man. You are literally a lifesaver.
Mine didn't have a .bak file and I just deleted the temp profile one and it locked me out of using the home button and it removed my pinned items from my task bar, does anyone know what to do ?

You are amazing. My son was sooo worried and stressed that he lost all data and Hp was about to charge us. Thank You Very Much!
Damn
A windows update failure almost destroyed my machine, but this was a much welcomed fix. Thank you so much my friend. Now to get it running more like a 280 Z and less like a Ford Maverick. Lol.
You are a life saver! Thank you so much! Very simple and easy to follow.
I've followed the steps and delete the ".bak" and the temp profile folder, after i restart my computer it makes another one :( Please help i've been trying to fix this for the past 2 weeks.
Shut down with the on-off button so that the OS will not change the registry again.
Rank Merida thanks bruh!!!!
That shit didn't work for me either with the button
Same with me also... again it created .bak file
Only delete the bak not the *.*
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.
i fucked up and restarted my pc before doing step 3
now my computer has asked me the starter questions when first getting the pc and the user things have the regular one (with no information when i click on it) and one with “_Classes” at the end
Thank you. Your comment helped me.
Brother you are a legend. Be blessed🫶❤️

the fiX files what if there isn't a "bak" at the end of one file?
THANK YOU SO MUCH
This didn't work for me. After reboot I have the same error message. And when I try again the profile with the .bak has returned. I am wondering if I should delete an additional key possibly. Would you mind taking a look if I send you a screenshot of my ProfileList?
