I have two ways you can use that might fix your problem.

1.On your wife's account, go to C: (or hard drive letter)/User/(your account
name, maybe owner)/ and copy all your data to a floppy or flash drive (usb).
Then delete the account and make it over again, copy back the files and
there you go. I had to do that when I used system restore to fix a problem.

2. use system restore.

Hie. I have also been getting the message: User profile failed logon and I
have tried both your suggestions with no luck. My main problem is thaI am
the administrator and even if I go through another person's account, I am not
getting to my data. Any more suggestions?

I am in exactly the same sitation as Garikai.

I have no administrator functions as my one and only Administrator account
has the "User Profile Service service failed the logon" problem.

How do I create a new Administrator account to get administrator functions
back?

Microsoft, can you help please?

I gave up tonight, and did something drastic to fix this problem.

I rebooted my system in 'safe mode' (which allowed me to login as
administrator), moved my files to the public area, and then deleted my
profile (using the Users option in Control Panel).

When I rebooted again, in normal mode, I could login as administrator, and
then moved my files back and rebuilt my profile manually.

The only problem was my forgetting about e-mail messages, which I did not
backup and have been lost permanently. Ug!!!

Hope this helps someone. (If there is a more elegant fix, please let me
know, as I will doubtless need to do this again in the future, unless
Microsoft fix the bug.)

PS One benefit of this has been the removal of an annoying corrupt message
in Windows Mail which I could not delete.
