Stuck in temporary profile after partition resize
Hi,
I've been trying for a couple days to get my windows seven out of temporary profile mode.
Last weekend I downsized a document partition to grow the windows partition by 15gb, using ubuntu's live-cd gParted program. And now I'm stuck with what to do.
So far I have tried fixboot, fixmbr, rebuildbcd with no luck. (with windows cd recovery console)
I am unable to access any type of administrative tools when i fire up windows (after starting explorer.exe manually). I have a basic windows desktop available to me, but like I said I can't open explorer or control panel, as i get either an error :
"explorer.exe No such interface supported"
or
"::{string of numbers and letters} No such interface supported"
Concerning cmd.exe, I can launch it and explore my partitions but everything else seems locked, and I can't run it as administrator.
It seems like windows has rearranged its letters too; windows used to be on E: but now finds itself on D:, and the cd drive has gone from D: to E:.
Trying to run regedit says that it can't find D:\Windows\regedit.exe and running regedt32.exe is the same.
I hope someone can help,
Thank you
