Frank: Thank you.

I rebooted, hit F8, and booted to safe mode with command prompt. At Set, I see the screen that you posted. The following info is interesting:

Homepath=\Users\Temp
LocalAppData=C:Users\Temp\AppData\Local

Temp=C:\Users\Temp\AppData\Local\Temp
TMP=C:\Users\Temp\AppData\Local\Temp

Username=MMM (this would seem to be correct)
USERPROFILE=C:\Users\Temp (this does not seem correct)


The username on this laptop, or the administrator, is MMM, and that is not showing up in the same places that I see your name in the SET screen.

Can you suggest a solution?
