WTF?! Got a windows update, and it deleted my main user account?
« on: February 12, 2005, 02:46:12 PM »
Okay... I have two user accounts "Administrator" and "dlewis3".

"Administrator" is the primary one where I do everything.

"dlewis3" is solely so I can print on the network.

So basically, Administrator is my life and soul. Well today, I got a nice little "Updates ready to install" in my taskbar, so I installed them. Then it said that I had to restart. No biggy.

So when it reboots, all I have (both accounts are password protected) is the \'dlewis3\' account.

I\'ve even gone to Control Panel and checked \'User Accounts\' and the only one listed is dlewis3.

SON OF A BITCH.

ANY SUGGESTIONS!?!?!?!?!?!?
