Windows 7 Temp Profile - Deleting User Profile To Recreate it

1- Logon with local admin profile. (or other account different that you want to use, but with admin privileges).
2- Open regedit and go to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList. Here you can see all SIDs of loaded profiles and probably you'll have some of them repeated.
3- You will click on each string that looks like the ones below and it will show you on the registry right view the user that is associated to it, delete the ones for the users intended. Then delete the actual user profile on Windows under "Users" (make sure to back up first)

SID-1292428093-343818398-2115-158554
SID-1292428093-343818398-2115-158554.bak

4- Restart your computer or Logoff and Logon with the profile that you want to restore and that's all, your profile will be restored Perfectly.
