How to re-create a corrupted profile in Windows 10 (Step by Step guide)

In this video I am going to show you how you can re-create a corrupted profile in Windows 10. Profile keys can be found here:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList

Note: Be careful working with registry. Deleting an incorrect key can lead to unusable OS.

Definitely choose this video. Because I watched many videos about this issue. But, they did not work, because they gave incomplete information. Thank you very much

Great tutorial my dude. Ran into a corrupted profile issue at work for the first time. This was seamless.

Thankfully the dude only had the computer for a week so not much info had to be copied over.

Dear Nick, when I have created a new user profile and am copying files from the users account, you said do not copy and paste all of the files and folders as they maybe corrupt.
How can I know which files and folders to copy then to avoid having the same error?
Thanks in advance.

Well done with lots of good humor, too! One of the good guys! I might try this! Meantime, I am just using the Visitor profile and have backed up all my data using the temp profile that keeps getting remade ...

I’m not given the option to sign in as another user. Why is that?

[patrickcannady]

How would we know the third key down is her profile? It's all numbers and letters

[thecheapbastard]

What happens to the user's installed apps, browser favorites, etc? Will they be automatically transferred over to the new profile too?

Was J. Thompson a local profile or a domain account? And when you deleted her registry key, how did that not also delete her login information?
