I have three user profiles on my PC.

Yesterday, when I logged off one to go into another, a weeny box appeared advising me the profile was corrupt and a new blank profile was initiated.

Fearing an unwanted Windows reinstall, I switched off and rebooted in order to investigate. 2nd profile now OK.

So — I can log onto any of my three profiles from bootup, no problem, but when I log off one and log on to another (haven't tried Switch User btw), my PC tries to set up a new profile presuming the old one to be corrupt.

Not mortal — but very annoying.

Anyone have a solution?
