Corrupt Windows user profile
Resolution/Fix/Answer
Testing a Windows user profile on a Desktop.
User 1 is the only person receiving an error in PfW.
User 1 should go to a different User's desktop (we'll call this person User 2)
User 2 would log into User 2's Desktop using User 2's Windows login.
User 1 would start and run PfW on User 2's desktop.
If User 1 doesn't receive the error in PfW, then User 1's profile may need to be recreated on User 1's desktop
Testing a Windows user profile on a Citrix Server or Terminal Server
User 1 is the only person receiving an error in PfW.
User 1 should go to a different User's desktop (we'll call this person User 2)
User 2 would log into User 2's Desktop using User 2's Windows login.
User 2 would login to the Citrix server or the Terminal Server using User 2's Windows login
User 1 would start and run PfW on the Citrix Server or Terminal Server
If User 1 doesn't receive the error in PfW, then User 1's profile may need to be recreated on the Citrix Server or Terminal Server
