How to create a new user profile in vista

Action
user profile became corrupt for unknown reasons

Result

Media player would not open and several other programs were not working either

Cause
Seems to have been caused by a corrupt user profile

Resolution
Before starting the following steps please ensure to:

Test with an alternate user: If you are able to logon with an alternate user account, this can indicate a problem with the user profile of the original user.

Note: Creating a new user account is a troubleshooting step. This is not a final solution to an issue unless the original data is restored to the new user profile.

Creating a New User Profile:
If there is an issue loading the user profile for a user account on the computer, you may need to create a new user profile that will map to that user account. When that is done, you can then copy data from the damaged profile to the newly created profile.

To do this, use the following steps:

1. Make sure that the problem user is logged off.

2. Log on as an administrator.

3. Go into the \Users folder and rename the directory containing the problem user profile. Rename it to ".old"

Note: You may get "Access is denied" when trying to rename this folder, If you do log into safe mode and rename it there or enable the default admin user. To do so follow the steps below:

Use the Local Users and Groups MMC console

Change the properties of the Administrator account by using the Local Users and Groups MMC console.

  • Open the MMC console and select Local Users and Groups.
  • Right-click the Administrator account and select Properties. The Administrator Properties window appears.
  • On the General tab, clear the Account is Disabled box.
  • Close the MMC console.
Administrator access is now enabled.

4. Create a new folder in \Users that matches the previous name of the user profile folder, for example:

5. Open System Properties, Advanced System Settings and access the User Profile Settings.

6. Locate the damaged profile name and verify that the profile shows as 0 KB in size in this interface. This zero size is due to the fact that the directory has been renamed.

Note: Do not continue if the directory shows up with a size greater than zero. That could indicate that you may be deleting a profile folder that contains data.

7. When done, log on as the problem user and verify that a new user profile has been created in a folder matching the username, stored in \Users.

8. When done, you can then copy data files from the \Users\.old folder to the folders in .

Note: Do not copy the following files:

- Ntuser.dat

- Ntuser.dat.log

- Ntuser.ini

Office Removal Wizard for your computer

When you upgrade versions of Microsoft Office, the Office Removal Wizard (Offcln.exe) removes unnecessary or obsolete components from previously installed versions of Office and related programs. A stand-alone version of the Office Removal Wizard is available as well, and is automatically installed on your computer when you install the Office Resource Kit.

You can use this tool to exert a detailed level of control over which files to remove and which to retain. For example, if you are upgrading applications in stages to a newer version of Office, you can use the Removal Wizard to remove previously installed versions of the specific applications you choose to upgrade.

The Office Removal Wizard can detect and remove Office 95, Office 97, Office 2000, and Office XP, as well as Microsoft Office Multilingual User Interface Packs (MUI Packs) and individual Office applications. A companion file list allows you to review and edit the detailed list of files that can be removed.

note:The Removal Wizard does not remove documents or other user files from the computer.

Shadow Copies for Shared Folders / Previous Versions

Shadow Copies of Shared Folders provides point-in-time copies of files that are located on shared resources, such as a file server. With Shadow Copies of Shared Folders, you can view shared files and folders as they existed at points of time in the past. You can access the server portion of Shadow Copies of Shared Folders through the Shadow Copies tab of the Local Disk Properties dialog box.

When you restore a file, the file permissions will not be changed. Permissions will remain the same as they were before the restore. When you recover a file that was accidentally deleted, the file permissions will be set to the default permissions for the directory.

Creating shadow copies is not a replacement for creating regular backups.

When storage area limits are reached, the oldest shadow copy will be deleted and cannot be retrieved. There is a limit of 64 shadow copies per volume that can be stored. When this limit is reached, the oldest shadow copy will be deleted and cannot be retrieved.

Shadow copies are read-only. You cannot edit the contents of a shadow copy.

You can only enable Shadow Copies of Shared Folders on a per-volume basis; that is, you cannot select specific shared folders and files on a volume to be copied or not copied.

The client software for Shadow Copies of Shared Folders is located on the server and must be deployed to client computers. You can access the client view of shadow copies through the Previous Versions tab of the Properties dialog box of the shared file or folder. The client software for Shadow Copies of Shared Folders is installed on the server in the \\%systemroot%\system32\clients\twclient directory

The Properties dialog box does not contain a Previous Versions tab

Cause:
The Previous Versions client is not installed.

Solution:
Install the Previous Versions client. It is located on the Windows 2003 server in the folder %windir%\system32\clients\twclient\

Cause:
You cannot view previous versions of files on a local shared resource. You must have a working network connection and be viewing the volume as a shared resource.

Solution:
Verify that your network connection is available. Then, create a connection to the shared resource on your local computer as if it were in another location on the network.

How to restore a computer to a previous Windows installation in a dual/multi boot situation

Action
A clean installation with NO format was performed on a partition containing a legacy OS (Windows XP).

Result
The legacy OS is no longer bootable.
Cause
Bootable installations of Windows Vista and Windows XP cannot simultaneously exist on the same partition. When Windows Vista is cleanly installed, with no format, on a partition that already contains an existing Windows XP installation, The following Folders from the legacy OS are moved to a Windows.old folder:

Windows>Program Files>Documents and Settings

Resolution
The following steps provide an option to revert back to the legacy OS if the Windows Vista installation was done in error:

1. Boot into the Windows Recover Environment (WinRE) Command Prompt using the Windows Vista installation DVD.
2. Identify the partition in which Windows Vista was installed (this partition would contain the Windows.old folder).
3. Type the following commands where Z: is the partition that was identified in Step 2.

Z:cd\ren Windows Windows.vista>ren “Program Files” “Program Files.vista”>rd “Documents and Settings”
xcopy Z:\WINDOWS.OLD\*.* Z:\ /s /h

The preceding commands rename the installed Windows Vista folders and removed the Documents and Settings junction. The Windows XP folders located in the Windows.old folder are then copied back to the root of the drive.

4. Repairing the boot configuration of the legacy OS can depend on what other operating systems exist on the computer. Read these carefully and choose the scenario that describes the computer and type the commands where C: is the active partition (the partition that contains the boot files):

Note: When clean installing Vista over a single Windows XP installation, the boot entry for XP is left in the boot.ini, but the boot.ini is renamed. Bootsect /nt52 not only makes NTLDR the default boot loader but also renames the boot.ini.saved back to boot.ini. An upgrade to Vista, removes the XP boot entry from the boot.ini if multiple XP entries exist.

A) If no other installation of Windows XP exists on the computer but another installation of Vista does:

C: cd\bcdedit /delete {id} (Note: Where {id} is the identifier of the Vista OS that was installed over Windows XP)bcdedit /create {ntldr} /d "Earlier Version of Windows"
bcdedit /set {ntldr} device partition=c:
bcdedit /set {ntldr} path \ntldr
bcdedit /displayorder {ntldr} /addlast
attrib -s -h -r boot.ini.saved
ren boot.ini.saved boot.ini
notepad boot.ini

Update the boot.ini if needed to include the installation of Windows XP you just reverted back to.

B) If no other installations of Vista exist on the computer:
D:\boot\bootsect.exe /nt52 all (Where D: is the DVD ROM drive containing the Windows Vista DVD)

C) If another installation of Vista AND XP exist on the computer:

C: cd\
bcdedit /delete {id} (Note: Where {id} is the identifier of the Vista OS that was installed over Windows XP)
attrib -s -h -r boot.ini
notepad boot.ini

Update the boot.ini if needed to include the installation of Windows XP you just reverted back to.

NOTE - This is a SAMPLE boot.ini entry:

Stop Outlook Password Promt in Windows XP and Vista

"it’s not for the faint of heart being that it deals with modifying system generated files"There’s long been a complaint from Vista users in regards to always having to enter an email password when sending or receiving messages in Outlook 2007 and Windows Mail. While the problem exists in Windows XP as well, it seems to be easier to remedy with a quick settings-change in Outlook, but the same fix in Vista doesn’t always work.

When using POP3 and IMAP-based email accounts, checking the box next to "remember password" when setting up the account credentials should always do the trick. The only problem is that many find that even when the box is checked, you still have to enter your password every time you open Outlook or Windows Mail, receive messages, as well as send messages- which can become a very irritating flaw. The problem seems to be more prevalent when connecting to an Exchange account for some reason as well.

While there is a fix for this flaw, it’s not for the faint of heart being that it deals with modifying system generated files. If this scares you, it might not be worth it, but it’s easily reversible if done correctly. Here’s what you need to do:

First, close down Outlook and/or Windows Mail. Open up Windows Explorer, and paste the following line into the address bar:

%userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Protect

This should bring up a single folder with a long name with several numbers and dashes. To fix the problem, you simply have to rename this folder to something else. According to the How-To-Geek’s tutorial on this, it’s recommended that you simply add "-old" to the end of the folder name to change it (without quotations of course). This way, if something goes wrong, or it simply doesn’t work, you can take the "-old" off and everything should revert back to normal.

Leave this folder open, minimize it, and re-open Outlook or Windows Mail. Re-type your password, be sure to check the box "remember my password," and click OK. Hopefully, if everything went ok, you shouldn’t have to enter your password ever again. Once Outlook or Windows Mail is up and running, bring up the Windows Explorer window again and make sure there’s another folder created like the one before (this is in addition to the one you just changed).

Hopefully this has solved your problem, though sometimes it doesn’t. In that case, delete the new folder, and re-name the old folder back to its original name by removing the "-old" from the end of it. This is, to my knowledge, the only fix for this flaw thus far, though hopefully a formal fix will come along shortly.

Reinventing Web browsers

For years, web browsers have shown no apparent progress.
