    create a temp file in c:\users
    is it then is F:\users as well, so junction point works?

    same for program files etc

    bcdedit/set {default} safeboot minimal
    this sets the default bootmode to safe mode.

    So set the default boot setting to safe mode now. Then boot into advanced boot options and select "Disable Automatic Restart on System Failure"

    Now the system starts in its standard mode (which is safe mode now) and doesn't restart on crash (I assume this "don't restart option" is only once[?])
    Only once, confirmed

    Now you see the BSOD. What does it say?
    Code:
    STOP C000021A {Fatal System Error}
    Initial session process or system process terminated unexpectedly with a status of 0x00000000 (0xc0000001 0x00100590)
    The system has been shut down

    But please disconnect all unneeded hardware for now, just as test. So
    disconnect external, drives, printers, usb sticks etc. Leave mouse and keyboard attached.

    Windows should even start without a mouse so disconnect that as well (impossible if it's a touchpad).

    I don't expect it will boot then succesfully, but give it a try
    Done:
    - while configured in safe mode by default, as per your recommendations: same result as with everything connected: BSOD
    - while back to normal mode: again no difference: the same logon screen with empty icon, reconnected keyboard to attempt to log in, but denied as previously

    Done: no problems after cerating a dir in c:\users, and one in "c:\program files", dir are properly created, so junctions work

    Fixed below post with BSOD info: stop code is C000021A instead of C0000214. Sorry

    Erm... based on How to troubleshoot a "STOP 0xC000021A" error, it sounds that either Winlogon.exe or Csrss.exe (or one of the DLLs they depend on) is broken. Considering I don't have this STOP in normal mode, I wonder if that couldn't be a malware infection....

    Memory check from RC already done 1 hr ago, no issue detected.

    Will go for System Sweeper now, thanks for the tip and your great support so far.

    I'll post the results later on in the afternoon...

    France, why? Could it be the reason Windows no longer allows me to log in?
