I switched off today and switched back on and now have only 'other user' on the login page. All of my normal user logins have disappeared
So, I cannot get past this.
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks

Hello Eddie, and welcome to Seven Forums.
You might see if doing a system restore using a restore point (if available) dated before this happened may be able to help.
If the above is not an available option for you, then you might see if the tutorial below may be able to help even though you only have the "other user" part.

Hi
Thanks for the reply.
I've done a system restore by booting from my W7 disk.
The fix suggested is not available to me because I cannot get past the login page with only having 'Other User' as a login option.
I guess what I'm looking for is a back door.

Eddie
Hmm, ok. Enable the built-in Administrator account in WinRE, then see if it may be an option at login in at startup or Safe Mode. Did you have older restore points that you could try?
Done 'Load hive' and there is no C: drive, only System Reserverd c: showing
does this mean what i think it means !!!!!?????
Nar, drive letters are not always the same at boot as they are in Windows. While in the command prompt at boot, type the commands in bold below to see what your Windows drive letter is, and use that letter instead. :)
- Diskpart and press Enter
- list volume and press Enter
- you should see drive letter now
- exit and press Enter
I've got

Belay the last comments. For some reason my C: drive is shown as d:
In step 8 the number indicated was already 10.
Everything else done.
No improvement
