248486	2004-06-30 02:55:00	Hi, I have adjusted some settings with XP Powertoys and now find my account is gone. I have administrator and Guest which is off but that’s all. Now I can only get in as Administrator but all my settings and programs are gone. I can see my login on C:\ drive and under Computer Management in Local Users and Groups but it doesn’t show on the Welcome page or log straight in as it use to. I tried creating it again but it says I can’t as there is already a user with that name. Can anyone help? Thanks Asdex	asdex (1488)

248489	2004-06-30 06:49:00	Hi, I have looked at that screen but it only says "Use the Welcome Screen" and "Use fast User switching". In the "User Account" window and "pick an account to change" there are only the Admin and Guest accounts. Thanks asdex	asdex (1488)
248490	2004-06-30 07:07:00	Try unticking "Use Fast User Switching" then it may let you choose the option above it for the classic login.	Chilling_Silence (9)

Well Babe Ruth has as I found their answer on copying profiles and created a new account then copied my old profile which I couldn't access to it. It worked fine. I will now fix the login so it starts as before. Thanks for your help. asdex Powertoys = Dangerous	asdex (1488)
