When you log on to a Windows 7-based or a Windows Vista-based computer by using a temporary profile, you receive the following error message:

More information


This error may occur if the “Do not logon users with temporary profiles” Group Policy setting is configured.

This error may also occur if the user profile folder was deleted manually. A profile folder that is manually deleted does not remove the Security Identifier (SID) from the profile list in the registry.

Alert icon

 WARNING: We strongly recommend AGAINST making this the standard way to remove user profiles from computers. The documented and supported approach is by using the Advanced System Settings in the system properties, “User Profiles” settings. For programs, this is available by using the “DeleteProfile” API.

If the SID is present, Windows will try to load the profile by using the ProfileImagePath that points to a nonexistent path. Therefore, the profile cannot be loaded.
