Windows 10 stuck on welcome screen

Question

Wednesday, October 14, 2015 5:25 PM

I have about 50 classrooms, all have Windows 10 ENT, connected to a Domain

and recently a few users can't login, the computer is stuck on the Welcome screen, and the circle is turning

I can login from any admin user

I deleted the profile from the registry + deleted the user folder in "C:\Users", only then I can login, but some users will get stuck again...

Is there any solution for this?

Thanks

Try a Start Up Repair.

Hold down the shift key on your keyboard while clicking the Power button on the screen.

Continue to hold down the shift key while clicking Restart.

Continue to hold down the shift key until the Advanced Recovery Options menu appears.

Click Troubleshoot

Click Advanced options

threeeye,

Please take a check under Event Viewer and see if any login events logged there.

For slow boot and slow logon, please check:

Did this actually get resolved threeeye?

I have the same problem immediately after reboot for all users who have a home directory configured against their user account in AD. It doesn't happen if no home directory is configured.

If a user without a home directory logs in first and then logs out, a user with a home directory can sign in successfully.

No, I didn't get this resolved :(

Windows 10 is still doing this for a few users in my domain...

The temporary solution is to login with an admin user, delete the user entry in the Profilelist in the Registry, then deleting the users folder in "C:\Users" (we have the "Desktop" and "Documents" redirected to the server, so no files are deleted...)

Then login with the removed user to recreate the profile...
