    "Can't read your preferences"


    Mt PC recently had a blue screen event. After running diagnostics, and restarting, I had the following error message: "Profile error We can't read your preferences or save changes to them. You may not be able to use all features." I have tried adding a new profile and copying relevant data from the old to the new but every time I try to access my C Drive the computer hangs.
