user profile

Good day

There is a profile that is currupt (i think so) it gives trouble user cannot print and access certain network settings therfreo i created a new one and cannot delete the old one. the new now jumps off the network occassionally and comes back on.

what would cause that?

and how can I edify myself more on user profiles.

thanks

Did you rename the corrupt profile to usernameold or something like that? You might not be able to delete as well if your PC is in use. Try rebooting and logging in right away with admin credtials. Find and see if you can delete it

The best way to delete a profile is to right click my computer -> properties -> advanced -> User Profiles | Settings button

Try that.

What do you mean by "jump off the network"? Does it get a notification in the taskbar that the network was disconnected, or do you mean that he just can't access the printers, network drives, etc?
