Yeah, speaking of reset buttons . . . .
I restarted my computer yesterday morning and ever since it’s been throwing me into temporary accounts, which don’t have all of my shortcuts or my saved passwords (for low-threat sites like this blog) and also won’t allow me to directly access any of my files–or some of my applications. I tried restarting–which only resulted in multiple temporary accounts. Then I tried copying all of my files over to this temporary account–I can find them in File Explorer, at least. And setting up at least what I could.
Then I shut the computer off last night and . . . right back to a new temporary account this morning. Clearly, this approach is not going to work.
I’ve managed to find a set of instructions on things to try in order to fix this, so I suppose that’s next. For however long that takes.
First up is copying all of my files off somewhere safe, just in case. Then into the wonderful world of arcane computer instructions.
Wish me luck. I need it.
