| repair install of xp: Windows cannot load the users profile Posted: 13 Nov 2011 10:30 PM PST  Another repair install of XP (due to a motherboard failure) But once windows starts, I get: Windows cannot load the users profile. And after I’m logged in, I get a few error messages like: Cannot create a file when that file already exists. I can already guess that this is a file permission problem with the original user account. So I restart in safe mode, see that the permissions and owner settings don’t look right. So I change them, and apply the change to the whole c:\Programs and Settings\user folder structure But after restating in normal mode, things are not quite right… so as the normal user, I start windows explorer, go to c:\Programs and Settings\user, then go to properties, and change ownership of the whole folder structure (again). After that, I’m still getting errors. So I figure a restart is worth trying. Sure enough, after a restart, everything is back to normal. Related posts:
