Sirrahshar
says:obviously, no one is addressing the problem of RAJKUMAR KALANGE. I am having the same problem he has. I’m logged in with a temporary profile(whatever that means and however, it happened I am clueless) I just want to find my photos and other files. If I ask Cortana to “find my files” she only finds up to 100. I’ve got thousands of files and hundreds of photos that I need to access. This is the most frustrating thing I’ve ever done. I’ve been attempting for 3 days. If I don’t have an extrication soon, I am returning back to Windows 7. Also, I cannot access the app store from the start menu. The only method is the ask Cortana but then the icon pops up and says “opening app store” and nothing happens. When I go to the URL for the app store and click on “get the app” nothing happens.

says:My PC is showing that I have logged into the temporary profile and not showing my personal account. Till yesterday, it was showing the local account logged in and all my apps and personal settings.
Since today morning, PC is showing that I have logged into the temporary profile and when I restart the PC, it again crashing and showing ‘Preparing Window’ and the same problem again of showing log in of ‘Temporary Profile’
