I've got a frustrating situation with my PC. It's somehow switched to a temporary account, and I can't figure out how to revert it back. To make things worse, my Ethernet port has stopped working, leaving me without internet access, and I don't have a working WiFi card. When I tried to log in with Edge, I received the errors: "Error code: 3, 15, 1067." I attempted a solution I found on Reddit, but it didn't fix the issue. I thought I could use my ADATA USB drive to install the WiFi drivers, but my PC doesn't recognize the drive and shows a message saying, "Setup incomplete, Connect to the internet." I'm really at my wits' end and out of ideas on what to do next! Here are my system specs: GPU: AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (24 GB), AMD Radeon(TM) Graphics (476 MB); CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D 16-Core; Motherboard: ROG Strix B650E-F gaming WiFi; OS: Windows 10.

Hey, it sounds like a real headache! First, I’d suggest focusing on the temporary account issue. For that, boot up using Safe Mode with Networking and see if you can access your main account. As for the Ethernet issue, if you think it's the router, try connecting directly to the modem with a different cable. Regarding the errors in Edge, check your internet connection again because those may not show up if you’re offline. Lastly, for the USB drive not appearing, make sure Windows is properly recognizing it—sometimes just re-plugging it in helps!
It seems like you've already done somegood troubleshooting! The regedit change you tried is a common fix for login issues, but since it didn’t work, maybe try creating a new user account from your temporary account. This can sometimes help restore your main profile. Also, about the WiFi drivers, ensure you’re running the installation as an administrator—that could help make the installation go smoothly. If that fails, consider checking your motherboard documentation for specific driver installation steps. Good luck!
Good point! Sometimes the drivers need to be extracted first; maybe double-check your steps. If the USB driver still doesn't register, try a different port or another USB stick if you can borrow one!
Better yet, if you can get into Device Manager, see if the USB drive shows up there! If it does, try updating the drivers for it or even uninstalling and plugging it back in. It can do wonders!
