Error 26EE0668-A00A-44D7-9371-BEB064C98683 Cannot Access Anything At All

Hello all,
I have seen some similar topics matching my issue so I decided to post my case also on your forum. Would appreciate a lot if anyone could please help. Recently I bought new computer with Windows 8 (Lenovo PC). When I try to access Control Panel I get windows
error message with red circle icon and ''X'' inside. The content of error message is ''26EE0668-A00A-44D7-9371-BEB064C98683'' and under this id is the sentence in our ''nonenglish'' language so I will try my best to translate as good as possible, it is: ''Assignment
of User Accounts Names and security IDs weren't done''.
Please note, EXTREMLY IMPORTANT: I am 100% sure when this problem occurred and I am at least 95% sure what caused the problem. I decided to set up the windows 8 logon password - the password
which is asked right before windows 8's start screen occurs and right before windows desktop with icons and taskbar occurs. I wanted to have one so I didn't have much troubles setting it up but later I didn't like it due to reasons that are offtopic to this
question. So I decided to delete it but I didn't know how to do that - researched a lot of instructions and nothing helped. So it seems like I completely damaged my own top priority (admin) user account with something I shouldn't have done.
Also please note: I have already said this problem is in my case surely linked to corrupted user account ID. I think (however here I am
not that sure anymore as I was what I was typing in previous paragraph) I even know which exact step of procedure of my work (trying to figure out how to delete logon password so it would go right
to the start menu page and then to desktop with icons). I clicked on win keyboard key + r to come into ''Run'' and typed there ''netplwiz'' because according to some instructions I found I thought I would be able to delete password logon request there.
In this window I am referring to, I then deleted the only and only entry in the tab Users under ''Users Of This Computer''.  Shouldn't have done that. Button ''add'' is still there and ISN'T even grayed out but doesn't respond when i click it (see latest
consequence in ''Consequences'' part of my message below). I then saw that my user account id is somewhere and somehow (not sure where exactly I was) recognized which means it still exist but it is completely corrupted. I then found information online I could
make new user account name and copy data there but I am searching for DIFFERENT solution that would fix the problem.
Here are few consequences of this problem (same problem in safemode):
- I cannot access Control Panel via right hand taskbar menu because it is showing the error message (see second paragraph of this message after the first one ''hello all'')
- via same right hand taskbar via Search, I can access Control Panel BUT I cannot click ANYTHING there
- 90% of programs don't even run including ALL (EXCEPT ccleaner) tools that are anyhow related to ''nasty'' files cleaning, such as pc health advisor, malwarebytes,...
- Norton isn't responding. Doesn't report any windows when i download something with answer whether or not file is safe.
- at least half of programs, when i try to run them, aren't responding (freezes)
- cannot do ''sfc /scannow'' in cmd because it says im not administrator but i am
- many buttons, when trying to click them, don't even ''respond'' and many more consequences.
I am VERY new with Windows 8, very very new. And even further - my windows 8 isn't in english so I would appreciate if you could provide very detailed steps how to obtain something in order to click/type it.
Please if someone could help, do so. KINDLY REMEMBER:
I will do my best that I reply very quickly so if you decide to reply and I would like to ask you to please do so, then keep an eye on that topic. Thank you in advance.

Hi,
According to your description, it seems the user account is fully corrupted, I would suggest you fix the corrupted user profile, please refer to the detailed instructions in the link below:
Fix a corrupted user profile

(The instruction for Windows 8 is similiar to Windows 7 )

  • HT1491 ***!!!  I have not been able to access the itunes store for many months now.  I backed up all my purchases and reinstalled itunes and I still cannot access anything at all.  Anyone else have this problem?  I'm on an Alienware comp with Windows upda

    I have not been able to get onto itunes to check my account or purchase anything for about a year now.  Got an Alienware system with latest Windows.  When I pull up itunes I can access my old music but cannot access my account to purchase anything new.  Just reinstalled itunes and it still does not work.  I am ready to just quit.  Anyone else having this issue?  Solutions?
    Thanks!

    If this is an Alienware system, the most likely culprit is the Bigfoot Networks LSP as per the following document:
    Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
    Head to the Downloads and Drivers page at Dell for your particular model of Alienware. Look for available updates for your BigFoot networking device. If you update those drivers, does that give you back your Store access?

    Fallout75, good catch on the eXo plugin.  To remove it, in the Finder click "Go" on the menu bar and pull down to "Go to Folder" and then type ~/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins
    When that Finder window opens, you should see an "eXo" subdirectory.  Just delete that "eXo" folder and iTunes should start without the error.

  • HT204053 Seems my iCloud password is not the same as my iTunes.  Where do I go to reset my iCloud password?  I cannot access anything when prompted to put in my iCloud password because I do NOT KNOW it.  Thanks!

    Seems my iCloud password is not the same as my iTunes.  Where do I go to reset my iCloud password?  I cannot access anything when prompted to put in my iCloud password because I do NOT know it.  Thanks!  I've used my iTunes password for everything else Apple does and would like to use the same one for my iCloud.

    Do the following:
    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

  • When we purchased our mac two years ago, we set up the iCloud account.  this past winter I created a new iCloud account thinking I was changing it.  I now cannot access anything on the old iCloud acct and my computer hasn't been backed up either in awhile

    when we purchased our mac two years ago, we set up the iCloud account.  this past winter I created a new iCloud account thinking I was changing it.  I now cannot access anything on the old iCloud acct and my computer hasn't been backed up either in awhile.  How do i go back to that old account and delete it so that I can continue backing up on the newest account?  I changed it because the original one I created an iCloud account with is a yahoo account email address and I am deleting my yahoo account for being compromised too may times. 

    Well, you can go to Manage your Apple ID and change the password if you can answer the Security Questions:
    Apple - My Apple ID
    If you cannot remember the Security Questions you can contact iTunes Support to reset them for you:
    New iTunes Support - US and ww
    Once you get your password reset and you can access your account info on Manage your Apple ID, you can change your ID. You won't be able to use the same email address that you are using for the new ID unless you change that one to something else. But, if you can get back into your old ID and change it to a new email address, then you can go on using that old ID, and just manually move the iCloud stuff you added to your new ID back onto the old one. Most of the stuff (like Contacts, Calendar, Notes) can be added by logging onto https://www.icloud.com on your Mac and doing it that way (it is a lot simpler when you have an actual keyboard in my opinion)
    Hope this helps you to sort out the two ID business. If you have any questions, please post back!

  • HT1222 I just installed this update and now I cannot access "Mail" at all.  I tried reinstalling the program, but that does not work, either.  Help!!!!!!

    I just installed this update and now I cannot access "Mail" at all.  I tried reinstalling the program, but that does not work, either.  Help!

    Paldeng, thanks for the suggestion.  I've done all that.  I can connect to the server, but apparently they are not recognizing my ID and password.  I can use the server program if I don't go through Mail (using the same ID and password).  My mother in another state with another provider has had the same email issue, as also my husband on his laptop who uses the same internet connection I do.  His worked fine until we had it repaired at the Apple store and all the original programs reloaded (with the required updates, I assume).  We can receive email in Mail, we just cannot send.
    I contacted my service provider, and we went over my connections.  They said it was not their problem and connected me with Apple, resulting in a charge to me because my warranty is long expired.  Apple swears it is not their problem, it is the provider, so here I sit.  My son was able to fix my Mom's Mail (she's 97) and got my husband's working also, until mine went out, by tweaking connection descriptions and ports remotely.  The thing is, we had not messed with any of those settings, so what changed?  I just did not want to bother my son again, as he has many other demands on his time.
    Since this fiasco with the Mail v4.6 update, I'm wondering if something else was updated that works well with Lion and Mountain Lion, but does not work well with Snow Leopard and Leopard.  I think the problem I had with the Mail update was that my Mail program had been renamed to Mail (original), and therefore was not being recognized by the update.  Perhaps they had another tweak in there somewhere that is affecting outgoing mail connections?

  • HT1212 my i phone screen is black  i cannot access anything. i am trying to get my photos off of it and when i connect to i tunes it says my phone has a passcode which i cannot enter because my phone is black

    my i phone screen is black  i cannot access anything. i am trying to get my photos off of it and when i connect to i tunes it says my phone has a passcode which i cannot enter because my phone is black

    It's too late. If you had been syncing your phone with that computer prior to the screen failing, it wouldn't be asking you for a passcode...

  • My iPhone recently broke so I was sent a brand new iPhone to replace it, however, since receiving this phone, I cannot access anything which was previously backed up onto iCloud from my last iPhone. Please help me!

    My iPhone recently broke so I was sent a brand new iPhone to replace it, however, since receiving this phone, I cannot access anything which was previously backed up onto iCloud from my last iPhone. Please help me!

    If you are trying to restore to an iCloud backup, this has to be done during the initial setup process.  If your phone is already set up, you will have to go back to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content & Settings, then go back through the setup screens again and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup (see image below).  Be sure your phone is connected to wifi and your charger as this will take some time to complete.
    Also, your replacement phone must be running the same iOS version or higher to restore to your backup.  If you are running an older version of iOS than the device that was backed up, your backup will not be visible when you choose to restore to your iCloud backup.  If this is the case, you'll have to update your replacement phone first.

  • I cannot access Firefox at all anymore other than a blank screen and a "Firefox is not responding" message.

    I updated the versions of both Firefox and Adobe and now I cannot access Firefox at all. There is a blank screen with Mozilla Firefox top left. A couple of seconds later "(not responding)" appears. An attempt to close the window results in a box with the message "Firefox is not responding"

    You may need to delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing the latest Firefox.<br />
    In case you still have problems after installing then check your security software.
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
