User Profile Service - default profile

[PooMan UK]

Has anyone come across this issue happening frequently lately ....

In the past 3 weeks I must have had 20+ PC's / Laptops that have had the same problem (see image below)
Although I know how to fix it and I have had it crop up before, I've never had it hit so many units in such a short space of time.
I've browsed quite a bit to see if there is some sort of virus/malware that may be causing it but there doesn't seem to be anything out there that might be the culprit.

I've scanned all the units for virus/malware and they all seemed to come up pretty clean. +15 of the units were win7 and +5 were win 8.

Any clues would be most welcome

Thanks guys ..... but as I said I know how to fix it, I just find it strange that I've had an extremely large amount in such a short spate of time lately. One day I picked up 10 units in 1 day with exactly the same problem.

I was just wondering if anyone was experiencing similar issues

Sorry, it's one of those errors that could be caused by many things all under the generic of user profile corruption.

However, I find that it's usually caused by user error due to improperly trying to rename the user profile folder, or improperly trying to move the user profile folder to another location.
