When you change your profile and logoff, none of the changes are saved? There are no errors generated?
NOTE: If you add the user to the local Administrators group, the changes are saved.

If the user is NOT a member of any local group, they are considered to be a Guest. Guest profiles are deleted at logoff.

1. Open a CMD prompt.
2. Type net localgroup Users "DomainNameUserName" /add
