Question
Tuesday, April 2, 2019 7:08 AM
Hi Everyone,
Had a user whom is logging into a machine and seems to only be able to get in using a temporary profile.
I've tried to rename the local profile which gives the error "Solution to cannot rename file because the folder or a file in it is open in another program"
Does anyone have any ideas how to get around this?
I've tried the following
- Changing folder view
- Restarting Explorer
- Preventing Windows from using thumbnails
- Rebooted machine
Any help would be appreciated to this extremely frustrating issue.
Certainly appears as though it's been a known issue for years having done a search for it
