Local user settings lost
I removed my USB connections by mistake which caused the computer to reboot.
And now it does not recognize my user settings, sets me up as a temp "owner". I seem to have lost my document files. System restore does not work. I get message that the entry point cannot be located. Any suggestions for a novice?

Re: Local user settings lost
System restore does not work because the system does not recognize a point of
entry.

Another option is restore the data from a backup. Always have a current and complete backup.
