Posted February 26 Updated EAM from 7213 to 7219 on Win 7 64bit. Turned laptop off. After a few moments turned it back on again (to confirm delay in boot fixed now) Then got to old user profile issue again. Had to log out and log in again as me. Attached are both sets of debug logs from the 2 boots this morning, plus the 4 event viewer errors 1508, 1502, 1515, 1511. Note the user profile service in this session said it had successfully started (1531) immediately before the errors.

Posted February 27 A temp user profile here also Frank https://support.emsisoft.com/topic/26956-emisoft-update-query/ 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 5 This temp user profile issue happened again today on Win 7 64 bit (the only one it seems to happen on) I was able to log off and log in again as myself. No EAM logs as the 7 day only logging rule had been applied by EAM (have turned them back on again) Picture from my Event Viewer Download Image 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 31 Build 7336 Just booted my Win 7 laptop into a temp profile again. Logged out and then logged into into my own profile. EAM started to autoupdate and 'installing'' got sort of stuck. It ended up taking almost 9 minutes before it finished. Debug logs attached a2guard_20170331151518(2996).zip 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 5 Don't know if you need my feedback but I think it may be interesting that my machine starts up every day like brandnew still. I didn't see the temp profile since I thanked my helpers on February 26th. While Emsi moved through some versions there was never any problem. Today v.7353 appeared on my screen. Runs smooth and stable. I have no idea cause I didn't change anything in my usage. Good luck! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 9 I'm having issues with temporary profiles created by Windows 7 64bit Ultimate Edition. I have encountered this issue in 2016. I thought my OS was corrupted or my harddrive somehow. I reformatted and reinstalled the OS on a brand new SSD. Everything was working perfectly, until recently where the OS creates a TEMP profile from time to time. I started a topic recently at https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/t/643713/windows-7-temp-profile about this issue. I think that it's because I have ticked "scan at boot" that EAM is causing some issues when the OS boots. Only temporary solution to get your profile back is to go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList remove the folder that is pointing to the TEMP profile, and change the SID ending with .bak into the SID without the .bak. Meaning if the SID is par example "S-1-5-21-####-####-####-1000.bak" than you need to change that to "S-1-5-21-####-####-####-1000" On the right side, you'll need to change some things aswell : "Flags" should be 0 "State" should be 0 "RefCount" should be 0 Than reboot the OS to get back into your own profile with all settings, etc.. Until Windows creates a new TEMP profile... Annoying, time wasting, ... I'm using Process Monitor ( https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/processmonitor.aspx ) to see and check what is going on at boot. I see a lot of ini and dll files from EAM that seems to delay the boot time / boot sequence. I'm not 100% sure about that. A developer knows best what is going on offcourse. :-) 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 9 No need for all that reg stuff, the temp profile issue will only happen again later if you are prone to it. Just log out and log in again is the quickest way round it for now. The devs will sort it very soon I am sure 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just log out and log in again is the quickest way round it for now. The devs will sort it very soon I am sure Yeah I do know that. Let us hope it won't take long though. EAM is good software. If I choose to switch to another user and than log back into my account, the issue isn't solved. I really need to restart the OS in order to get it solved. Time will tell. I'm hoping to get the issue back when my Process Monitor is running to see what is causing it, so far the issue hasn't come back. I have removed every task (dropbox update & adobe acrobat update) that it needs to do when the computer boots. I have seen online, on another forum something about Google Update. I think it might be the combination of several software that are booting at boot combined with the EAM scan at boot that's causing this. In the log files of Windows 7, I also saw something about a process that is being used, so that it can't load the user profile properly and it was pointing to ntuser.dat under the C:\Users\ directory. Wondering if this issue occurs in Windows 10. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 16 I didn't have this TEMP profile issue since april 9, until today, I encountered it again. While being in this TEMP profile, I saw this in Process Monitor. Something was unloading everything on my computer, till the moment that Windows Flag + E gave me an "Explorer.exe can not launch" message. Even MsPaint.exe had this issue. It spammed the same message in the Process Monitor log file for like 20 million times!! Sometimes I saw that it unloaded everything from all my drivers, GPU drivers, every exe that was installed, and so on... Seems more like a virus to me than that it has something related to EAM! What happened before this was that EAM did an update of the software.

Posted April 17 yes that's correct. If you add an update feed in the skin.ini, you can't change it anymore in the UI. Not sure why it doesn't display se-uptest.

Posted April 18 Hi, Good to hear. The Userprofile issue is not reproducible at will. It -could- occur during the time EAM locks the profile during boot time, which is for a few millisecond only. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not sure if this is related to EAM or not, but yesterday when I "shutdown" my Windows, the turning icon next to "Shutting Down..." stopped turning, meaning it stopped in the middle of the shutdown process. I had to manually switch the PC off and back on. I do see a "0x40010004" error code, meaning some app has been forced to shutdown, but this happened not by me.
