I can still use 'Administrator', and the other user's file in "Documents and Settings" is there with a .bak on the end of the name, but when I try to log-on as that user, I get a 'you couldn't log on as this user, your profile may be corrupt' message, and it logs me onto a temporary account. In the Administrator account, which I don't normally use (having given equal power to this user account), the desktop settings, IE settings etc. are not there; I would prefer to access my old account and fix the problem rather than transfer everything to Administrator. Can anyone help me?
