Hi
When logging into Windows Server 2008 using a domain account i get a ballon
pop saying "Your User profile was not loaded correctyl!.... you have been
logged on with a temporary profile......" in C:\Users a folder "Temp" is
created. When i log of this disappers and so the messages comes up again when
i log on.
This all started when i manually deleted the user profile in C:\Users since
then it wont recreate it.
HKEY Register under users seems clean
Any Ideas?
Thanks
Hello Dave,
It is not enough to delete just the c:\users\username folder like in earlier
OS versions.
If you need to delete a profile:
- make sure to delete the profile directory and the associated Registry key
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList\SIDoftheuseraccount"
or
- open the control panel applet "System Properties" by running sysdm.cpl
and delete the profile from there
Before the temp profile will be created the "ProfileList" subkey is renamed
to SID.bak, whcih have to be deleted before it works again.
Best regards

Sounds like the account you use has insufficient rights to create a new
profile folder. You need to check the NTFS permissions of the parent folder.
Thanks for the quick response.
Looked under the sysdm.cpl and the only profile is the local admin one,
except when i log in then it appears but obviously the delete button is then
greyed out.
Also looked in the registry and that key "ProfileList" doesn't exist the
nearest to it is "ProfileNotification"
Any other bits i could try?
Thanks again

Hello Dave,
If i check on my 2008 registry and was logged on to the server with different
user accounts, i can see all user account profile entries with there SID.
Doesn't matter if i choose the DC or a member server.
The "Profilelist" exist with S-1-5-18 / S-1-5-19 / S-1-5-20 and then the
S-1-5-21-xxx... for the user accounts. At least the first one should exist.
Best regards

Thanks for your response, seemingly when connecting from a windows 2k3 box
using regedit remotely it doesn't show these.... locally on 2k8 it does.
So i did what you said remove the .bak key which had my original profile
path in then its all started working again.
I'll have to modify some scrtips that reset profiles on the public access
network, maybe there is a remote command for deleting the profiles or is it a
case of just deleting the .baks??
In any case thanks for your help.
Kind Regards
Dave

Hello Dave,
Nice to hear that you solved it. For registry settings between different
OS it is always better to go to the machine instead using the remote way.
You can use reg.exe for changing the registry via script. Choose reg /? on
the 2008 machine for the options.
