    Locked out of user profiles


    After doing a system restore, (which was reccomended) I now can by no means access any 1 of 4 user profiles on my computer. It gives me a message saying; "The User Profile Service service, failed the logon. User profile cannot be loaded." Please assist!

    What were you trying to fix with a restore and does Windows boot?

    I was trying to regain Windows installer. And what do you mean by "boot"? It starts up and makes it all the way to the login screen. That's as far as I can get.
