Suddenly my Windows 10 is doing something really weird. Every time I login I see a "Preparing Windows" message, and once I'm in, I see that all my settings are gone. By that I mean:
- Desktop picture set to the default one with the Windows logo
- Pinned taskbar shortcuts gone
- Cortana search bar appeared (I had disabled it)
- All accounts in Chrome gone
- Custom regional settings gone
- Installed keyboard layouts gone
- All applications acting like it's the first time I run them (no applications seem to have been uninstalled)
Windows 10 build number is 10.0.10586. A couple of days ago I had configured it to receive Insider builds in the slow ring, but no updates have been installed since then (that I have noticed at least).
Another weird thing is that the in the insider build configuration screen I see the message "Another administrator has set up this device to receive builds". I am the only person using this computer and there are no additional user accounts.
So, what's going on here? Thanks!
