Permissions problem Windows 7 - can't open explorer or control panel

I just trying to get the user to have functional permissions.

I just finished creating a new user and copying all the old user's data over to the new user to fix the error "The User Profile Service failed the logon. User profile cannot be loaded." I followed the Microsoft solution guide http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947215

When I try to open Control Panel or FIle Manager I get Error: Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permission to access the item.

Try Take Ownership.

Or , more detailed
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc753659.aspx

On %SystemRoot%\system32\control.exe  for Control Panel and
on C:\Windows\explorer.exe for File Manager.

It allowed me to change ownership but did not help.

If I open task manager and end all instances of explorer and then start a CMD.exe session as Administrator and run explorer.exe, the taskbar comes up. The file manager opens, control panel opens and everything works great. But I need it to do that from the start.
This is the best money I have ever spent. I cannot not tell you how many times these folks have saved my bacon. I learn so much from the contributors.

Creating a new profile worked. I must have copied over something I shouldn't have the first time I created a new profile.
