Like every other PC user that runs a version of Microsoft Windows I had some hot fixes to download. I figured that I would go ahead and just get i out of the way and get them downloaded and installed. I started the updates on my Home Server and then on my desktop. I was then prompted to ‘restart’ my machine to finish installing the updates. After the Home Server had restarted and my user account logged in none of my user specific settings loaded and I got a message to contact my system administrator (which is me).
I have been burned once before by the Microsoft Windows updates and I was not very happy about this. I decided that I would restart and then see if that fixed the problem. With my fingers crossed and thinking of when I was going to find time to re-setup all of my user account settings. Sure enough I didn’t have to do anything other then restart and poof… all is well.
