I have an Asus N 53S that is running Windows 7 Home Premium and M/S Office 2010.
I had shut the laptop down to take it to a store to check the sizing for a new carry bag. I'm fairly certain I had shut the laptop down properly.
I did not re-start the laptop until three days later. In the meantime I had disconnected my cable modem because I was turning in the equipment to over-priced Time Warner.
When I started my laptop three days after shutdown, I was able to input my password properly and access my desktop. Surprisingly, all of my desktop icons had disappeared except for the "recycle bin" icon. Also, some of the icons on the task bar had disappeared.
I also noticed in Office 2010 that Excel existed and could be opened but Word was nowhere to be found.
I logged off to re-boot and when the password icon came up, I typed in my password correctly.
What I got instead of my desktop was a message that said "the user profile service failed the logon. User profile cannot be loaded."
What the heck happened?
