Logon Failure - Roaming Profiles

Question

When trying to login using a local user on a client workstation/server with Roaming Profiles configured, I get the following error:

Upon viewing the ProcMon results I see:

On the Roaming Profile network path root directory I have assigned "Authenticatie Users" Everyone permissions, but it seems like that's not enough. Or is there a different problem? I even tried add the Everyone / Full Control Permission but that didn't help.

Logging on with Domain Users works just fine.

Any ideas what's wrong?

Hi,

Is there any event logs that has captured some details regarding this issue?

Please test by reapplying permissions on the folder "C:\Users\Default".
Right click on the folder - Select Properties - Security - Advanced - Change Permissions
Activate checkbox "Replace all child object permission entries with inheritable permission entries from this object".

Someone resolved the similar error message by resetting the folder permission or copying default folder from working server.

Thanks,
Jenny

Hi,
Sorry for late reply. After discussing with my team and a quick test, we would like to know more details to understand the issue better.

1.In my test, I configured the roaming profile file on user accounts and created a brand new local account. After then, I managed to log in to the computer either locally or remotely.

2. Could you please confirm how did you deploy the roaming profile configurations? Any guidance link will be appreciated and easier for us to reproduce your issue.
   Were you meting this error message when remoting to the target computer with local account(of target computer)? Or at which step you got this message of failure?
   Per searching, the error message above usually indicated a corrupted profile for the user.
3. When issue occurred, kindly log into the computer and check event logs related to user profile service.
   Step1 and Step 2
