Update 02/22/2020:

Additional Information for users hitting temporary profile issue on 21/02/2020:

Microsoft is aware of some customers logging into temporary profile after installing KB4532693, on both versions 1903 and 1909.

• Rebooting into Safe Mode* and then starting back in normal Mode should resolve this issue for most customers.
• You may uninstall any secure banking software or anti-virus in the temporary profile which may resolve this if the above steps do not help.

*To boot into Safe mode, Click Shift+Restart button on the login screen, select Advanced options>Startup Settings>Select 1 for the booting to safe mode. Restarting the computer should start the computer in normal mode. For booting into Safe mode, you would be asked for a password instead of a PIN if you have set.

Your Feedback is highly encouraged as it helps Microsoft in identifying the root cause.

Answer 1

Count yourself lucky to have a temporary account.  My Surface Pro 7 lost everything, as it's gone and there are no extra user accounts.  It will take two days to put it back to something I might want to use.

Answer 2

No way in hell will I install more Microsoft buggy crp to resolve Microsoft bugs.

Hope this helps

Answer 4

This is the second update in a row that has stopped my computer even booting. There have been so many issues with Windows 10 updates since launch, but none of them have bricked my machine until this year.

Answer 5

February's update ended my "normal" computer use,  Now, this is what happened:

The taskbar is empty of all my links.  The few links on the desktop are too small.

My desktop background picture disappeared and has been replaced by MS blue windows.

All my Favorites in Windows Explorer have disappeared.  The taskbar link is gone too.

All folders, email accounts and favorites are gone from Windows Live Mail.

I understand KB4532693 may have been installed to cause this drastic change,

Can I go back and uninstall it? How do I get all my old email messages back?

Microsoft wants me to use Edge and Mail instead of the older ones I preferred to use.

Before I revert to my "older" version of Windows 10, what should I try first ??
