Corrupt Profile

[Ollie]

Hello Yall, when I try to log on to Windoos 2000 Pro I
get the following message:
"Windows cannot load your profile. It may be corrupt.
Contact your Administrator"
Would someone give me step by step on how to clear this
bad profile. I would really appreciate it if you can
give me good details, I am not a Windows 2000 guru.

Thanks a lot

Ollie

If the profile is corrupt, you can rename the profile(while logged on as
local admin), then when the user logs on again a new profile will be created
from the image in \default user. You can then copy over the items you need
from the renamed profile. Copy the folder contents not the folders
themselves. When your sure you have all you need, you can delete the renamed
profile(s). Use the import function of your e-mail software.
