I have those two problems: no updates and no new users. After install and whenever I restart, the changes are being reversed and the updates are again pending (Concerning updates KB2532531, KB2555917, KB2529073,įrom past experience, if some apparently small thing does not work, that often is a symptom for some larger thing being wrong.Īnd that apperas to be the case here as well. The reason why I want to create another user is that the last four Windows updates do not install correctly. You will now be in the Manage Accounts control panel as shown in Figure 2 below. UpdatusUser - apparently created by Nvidea as "proxy" user for auto updates Click on the Add or remove user accounts control panel option as shown by the red arrow in figure 1.My unsuccsesfully created user (which this post about).Standard User with some long alphanumeric username - not created by myself.tells me that I have 4 users (the same number as above). That means I cannot be sure if that one should be deleted.Ĭontrol Panel \ User Accounts and Family Safety \ Parental Controls None of those "short" user profiles have a user name associated with them.

In regedit.exe I do have one user profile with a "long" SID (like S-1-5-18-1234567890-1234567890-1234567890-1234) that is referenced to my main admins user folder.Īnd I have another three user profiles with "short" SIDs (like S-1-5-18). The above solutions do not seem to apply to my case because in regedit.exe I do not have any clearly created user profiles except my (satisfactorily) working main admin user profile. Vista - The User Profile Service failed the logon.I cannot create a new user account (Windows 7): the user profile.
