Hi All
I am currently having problems logging off my Windows 2000 under my
username. I can logon and logoff fine under my other usernames but this
certain one i can get on fine but when i go start > shutdown > logoff under
this username my desktop just pops back up no matter how many times i click
logoff nothing else happens. I do notice that the first time i click logoff
and my desktop comes back up a few of my system tray icons close when i click
logoff as if it is trying to close but something stopping it? Anyone seen
this before please help.

Cheers

Matt

You probably have a corrupted username profile. Delete the problem
username then recreate it.
 
Hi Frank

I have tried loggin on as admin and removing the users profile so that when
they next logon it recreates a new one but this laso failed, anything else i
can try>

Did you delete the problem profile properly, ie when you next logged on
as admin, it was no longer there, or showed as a folder in 'Documents
and Settings'? A user cannot logon if hids profile does not exist so
what do you mean by 'they next logon' and 'it recreates a new one'? What
is 'it'? Unless other users are also administrators, only they cannot
create profiles.
