Deleted users

[Arnold D. Davis]

My daughter deleted my users on my system so that her user
id would be the first one. Now that she has deleted it
noone can log on now. Windows comes up to the point of
trying to log a user on but the screen stays there and I
can't to anything. How do I get to a point so that I can
get to recycle bin to replace the user id?

repeatedly. ( timing is kind of an issue here, so if it doesn't work the
first time, keep tring until it does) This will bring you to a page that
gives you options for starting in safe mode, as well as some other choices.

do a System Restore.
> To find System Restore, click Start>All Programs>Accessories>System
Tools>System Restore
> Then, restor it to the day before your daughter made the changes. If that
day is not available, go to the next available day prior to the day your
daughter made the changes. That, hopefully, should do the trick.

Unfortunately System restore does not restore data, so even if that restores
the users, all the data will be gone if the OP's daughter did not choose to
save files!
