    User Profile Services failed when Logging on


    When I attempt to log-in to my desktop I get a message "The User Profile Service failed to logon. User Profile cannot be loaded" From the MS form I believe that I need to edit my registry to rename and use my backup profile.

    I only had the one admin user set up on my computer and this is the one failing to log-on. When I attempt to use any commands that require admin permission, they fail when I typed in my password. How can I get admin permission? My Administrator user is disabled.

    Even though it states that my Admin,User Password is stored in the Registry, it never worked. I went to a restore point before an MS update and that has me back and working. I now set up a second IS with Admin rights for the future. I am awaiting until my MS update get reapplied and see what happens. Thanks for everyone's help.
