I turn on my desktop and it boots this other user shit instead of my normal profile

What do?

    Cast your computer into the fires of Mount Doom for it is an evil thing.


    Alternatively...can you describe your problem in a bit more detail?

  • I boot it up and it just goes to the log in screen with no choice of profile other than other user with both fields completely blank.



    I tried pressing f8 during boot up for safe mode but nothing happened.

    Recently I lost my entire collection of stupid pictures. Some of them may well be now lost to history entirely!

    What OS is this?

  • Vista I believe. -_-

    Okay. So, if I'm understanding correctly, rather than letting you choose from your existing user accounts it just gives you an "other account" signin where you must enter a username and password?


    If you know the username for the account you want, have you tried entering in the username and password?

  • No, not yet. I'm wary. I've heard it might be malware related though.

    Could be, but you're hardly going to be doing much about the malware without logging in.
