Revival?
I'm posting this message from my own computer, and I think that I
managed to save it. I use PE Builder to overwrite the SAM file
(c:\windows\system32\config\sam) with the original one from the install
process. This means that I appears to have lost the user "Ayende", (but
non of the data). The only user on this machine now is the pissed off Administrator.
I've re-created my user, but the problem is how to convince the computer to attach the old files to the new users. From my experiance, what would happen if I try to login right now (with an existing c:\Documents And Settings\Ayende directory) a new user directory will be created under the <Username>.<Machine-name> format, which isn't what I want.
I'm going to have to see if I can create a user, then log-off and
change the directories again, so I'll have the old user directory back.
Will post more when I'll have more info.
