README Update – Add Troubleshooting Instructions

If the user folder is renamed successfully, but after restarting the computer the user is unable to log in, it is likely that the registry entry ProfileImagePath was either not updated or updated incorrectly.

This typically results in Windows loading a temporary profile or showing a login error.

Steps to Resolve:

  1. Press Win + R, type regedit, and press Enter to open the Registry Editor.
  2. Navigate to:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
    
  3. Locate the subkey starting with S-1-5-21-... that corresponds to the affected user. You can identify the correct one by checking the ProfileImagePath value.
  4. Double-click the ProfileImagePath entry and update it to reflect the new folder name. For example:
    C:\Users\NewFolderName
    
  5. Close the Registry Editor.
  6. Restart the computer.
  7. Log in using the original user account.

After completing these steps, the user should be able to log in normally.


Request

Please publish a new release that includes:

  • Migration to .NET Framework 4.8
  • Updated README with the new troubleshooting section

Thank you!
