Homegroup and Windows FW problems solved but now I can't play L4D2

Odd, go ahead and restore the registry and try it again. Lets make sure we dont have something going on with it as well.

Before you do check the event viewer and see if you find any information on that error.

I did find this if you want to give it a go as well.

I restored the registry to it's state from 5 days ago when this all started. Oops, i didn't check the event viewer, how do I do that?

Now that I've restored everything, things are back to the way they were. I can play the game, RegCure Pro completes the scan, I can't share anything over my network ( I get a window asking me to Enter Network Pasword to connect to my HTPC, when there is none), and Windows Firewall is busted again (Error code 0x8007042c). The small difference is I am now allowed to leave and create Homegroups, but still can't share.

Shane:
OK see if you can create and use a new local user account. I want to see if there was a problem in the registry for it.

I tested on my Windows 8 machine I run all the repairs on and had no trouble making and logging into a new local account, but I just want to make sure :-)

I created a new standard user account and got the same message:
The User Profile Service service failed the logon. User profile cannot be loaded.
