All you need to do is log in to a computer which is not having any such problems. Then from the following location, copy the folder named default. It may be hidden, so you need to Show hidden files and folders before you proceed, Now, copy it to a USB Drive. Boot your faulty computer into the User Account you just created in Method 2 above.
After that, insert your USB Drive and navigate to the same Users folder that we just did. And rename the default folder that is already there to default.old. Now, you can copy the default folder from your USB Drive to a faulty computer. Just make sure that all the files with the .DAT extension in this new folder is deleted. Reboot your computer and check if that fixed your issues. 4] Repair User Profile Repair a corrupt User Profile manually or see if ReProfiler helps. All the best!
