User files garbled on system restore after "User profile service fai
Hello,
On another thread, I've been having hardware issues (New motherboard; system will not boot; cannot find windows; no BCD Solved - Page 2 - Windows 7 Help Forums).
In the process of getting back up, I had the "User Profile service failed the login, user profile cannot be loaded" error and couldn't log in at all.
I booted to safe mode and did a system restore. This let me log in with my profile again. All system files, programs etc are intact.
However, all my data files (docs, pictures etc) are garbled and unreadable. File names have a string of random characters followed by .js extension.
Please tell me there is a way to recover my data?
Help!
