What do I do if I have a corrupted user account and I am the only

Suggestions:
Logon to another account with admin privilege and run System Restore.
Choose the most recent restore point and SR should restore the user
hives.
Or...
Boot into safe mode and log in as Administrator. Copy ntuser.dat from
%windir%\repair to "Documents and Settings\[your user id]". Now do a
system restore to a point in time prior to when the corruption
message began to appear.
Or...
Relocate NTUserdat
Look in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList and find the profile you want to change
and then change ProfileImagePath to the ntuser.dat folder that you
want to use. You must manually copy or move the ntuser.dat file there.

user. I am blind so keyboard shortcuts would be best. Thanks and
have a nice day.
Is there an easier way? I can't see the screen at all so booting in to save
mode is not an option.
Kelly said:Sorry about that. But no, not that I know of. Good luck!

Oh well, I know I can find a way. I will keep doing more research. There is
nothing for you to be sorry about. I am blind and I find ways to do things
that sighted colleagues can do. Some tomes, I can get things done faster
than a sighted colleague.
