My login no longer sees my profile

Alienware Aurora R9

Alienware Aurora R9

In c:\users there's a profile, we'll call it BOB:

c:\users\BOB

I've been using it since day 1 and it still has all my files.

However, when I now log into my PC with the exact same email I've always used and exact same 4 digit passcode, it no longer links up to BOB but made a brand new user called TEMP.

How do I get my windows log in that I've always used to use the c:\users\BOB information?

If it helps: when I woke up it looked like my computer got updated and I saw a weird message something like "You need to log out and back in again or you may lose files from today's session". So I logged out and in with my 4 digit code, and it no longer sees me BOB files. I restarted the computer (not shut down - but actual 'restart') and it still won't "see" the c:\user\BOB profile and uses a new c:\users\TEMP profile).

Help please!

That may happen if the original user file is corrupt or missing. This web page at the MS forum may help and this page at Tenforums as well.
