Fix Windows User Profile Errors with ReProfiler
Every user in the Windows operating system has a user folder associated with the account name that stores computer settings and data. It can happen that the link between the user account and the user folder gets lost. Some reasons for this are hardware failures, migrating to a new computer system, username changes, joining the computer to a domain or file system permission issues.
It can happen that Windows fails to recognize the user profile and folder that is linked to the user account. This has the result that a new user profile is created on the next log in which will from then on be used instead of the old one.
ReProfiler lists all user accounts and profile folders in your Windows installation. The interface consists of two panels and the top panel lists the user accounts with information about the host, user, SID and assigned folder while the lower panel lists the profile folders with links to the data folder and assigned user(s).
Fixing issues with user accounts linking can be done by selecting the user accounts in the top panel and the profile folder you want to associate from the lower panel and then clicking the assign button. You can also break the association with the account and profile using the detach button.
The app has been work on Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 2003 Server, Windows 2008 Server, and Windows 7. It is always advisable to backup your data before using this app.
