User Account Problem

In Windows XP Pro I get this msg. "Windows cannot load
the user's profile but has logged you on with the default
profile for the system." It only happens with 1 of the 3
accounts. How can I correct this?

Hi Bob,

logon as administrative privileges on computer, but not as a user that has
profile problems. After your profile loads right click My Computer ->
Advanced -> under User Profiles click Edit -> In new windows that opens
select the user that has problems with his profile and click delete...
Now log off and try to logon with the other user that had problems with his
profile.

I hope this helps you out.

I have 4 users on my pc. I have never been able to
switch from 1 user to another but have to log off
completely. Now I am unable to log off the user account
without Windows freezing while it is saving the
settings. I have to shut down then.

I would appreciate any help with this

Make sure Fast User Switching is enabled:
