Windows Profile
After a power outage took down my PC, everytime I boot up a temporary profile is created ad my data is lost. Even when I signon as Owner - the data is no longer on my desktop. I can save nothing on my desktop. Can anyone provide a clue as to how I might fix this?

Disregard the title of that URL, but look in the registry where it is specifying, and see if you have the renamed profile key....
Chances are the profile is hosed, and migrating the data is in order, but there's more than that above that might be needed. Email/app settings/registry items from the profile etc....
Try forcing the permissions again on C:\Users\Owner, to Full Control for your userid.

Can even mount the .reg hive, and see if you can repush the permissions there....
