- This issue may occur if the user profile was manually deleted by using the command prompt or Windows Explorer by a user or by some program. A profile that is manually deleted does not remove the security identifier (SID) from the user profile list in the registry. Since the SID is still present, Vista will still try to load the profile by using the ProfileImagePath that points to a nonexistent path. Therefore, the profile cannot be loaded.
- This can also be a issue with the user profile entering into a backup state.
- Manually renamed the C:\Users\(User Name) folder.

- You can try doing a System Restore to see if it can fix this before using the instruction in the tutorial below. See the related links below for how.
- If you do not want to repair the user profile, you can delete it and create a new user account in OPTION TWO. If this still does not work for you, then you will be left with doing a clean install for your Upgrade or Full version of Vista.
