I was messing with the permissions to my user profile in a standard to user to allow a program for the use of Standard users.
However, when i logged on to my user i was suddenly assigned to as temporary profile, where any changes i would make on the profile will not be changed.. I have tried changing the permissions of my original user profile through Local Disk C:--->users--->my profile. I have given full control to any user on this PC to access this file, but i still can't access my original user profile. All i get from the event logger is that i may have insufficient security access or my user profiles are corrupt.
and yet the details say: Access is denied.

Help! Please! I'm suffering!!! I'm using a Guest User and it STINKS!!! LIVING NIGHTMARE!!

Gmanlink,

Your past postings concern "hacking" into machines. Will leave it up to Moderator for response.

oh and also, and secondly, wallaceb, i have already downloaded ubuntu, and it works like a charm. but i seriously don't think that ubuntu has the capabilty to fix user profiles... although, i wouldn't know, i haven't been using ubuntu that much.

Karma sometimes arrives early.

System restore may work. And I think you have to have a "Live" Ubuntu CD.
