Re: The User Profile Service service failed the logon. User Profile cannot be loaded

After you have logged into an Administrator account (after Step 1 or
possibly Steps 2-3), try a System Restore first. This may fix the issue
and
you will be able to log into your user account without going through
the
rest of Steps 4-5.

I tried the System Restore yesterday and it worked perfectly. This is
especially helpful if you only have made the mistake of having only 1
administrator account. As you can guess, I am not a very technical
person but the information I found here was so helpful that I wish to
add my 2 cents in hopes of helping someone else.

These are the steps I took:

1. I booted the computer in Safe Mode by clicking F8 at start. (thanks
Malke)

2. Clicked on the icon for my Administrator. I was actually able to
log on to the Administrator account in Safe Mode.

3. Entered control panel and selected System and Maintenance. I then
followed the instructions for a System Restore. This System Restore
function enables you to restore your computer to the way it was on any
date in the past (cool eh?). I followed the prompts to restore my
computer to the way it was 1 day before my Administrator Account Profile
Service failed the logon.

4. The operating system took me back in time to the day before I first
started having problems. I am now able to log on to my Administrator
account.

5. I immediately went to Control Panel and created 2 new users. I
assigned each new user Administrator status. I also copied all my old
documents, bookmarks, music and photos to the Public folder so they can
be shared with the new users I created.

I wish to thank everyone for the tips.
