Hello everyone.
When I try to log in, I get a message that says "The User Profile Service failed the logon.

" Unable to load the user profile"
So I can't access my account anymore. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
If someone knows, thank you very much for replying.

    Restart in Safe Mode.

    Then, click on Start\ type Run\ , type "regedit.exe" to open the registry. Expand the branch

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList\

    Locate the key beginning with S-1-5..... and having a large number of digits ending with .bak.

    Look for another key starting with S-1-5 that has exactly the same values but without the .bak at the end,

    then just rename it by adding .bak at the end, and remove the .bak from the key that contained it,

    (By right-clicking on them and then Rename).

    Exit and restart.

      I am a beginner and I have the same problem.
      Can you tell me what you mean by RESTARTING IN SAFE MODE?
