If the file.userprofile is known for your system, you can open it by double pressing the mouse or Enter key. This operation will start associated with the file.UserProfile application installed in the system. If the system meets the file for the first time and there are no relevant associations, the action will end the system offer, find the appropriate software in the computer or the Internet.
Sometimes it happens that the wrong program is attributed to maintain the file type.userprofile. This happens, as a result of hostile programs, such as viruses or malware, but most often this is the result of the erroneous alignment of the application with the extension of the file.UserProfile. If during the maintenance of a new type of files .Userprofile, we will specify the system incorrect program, the system will be mistaken to recommend its use whenever the file of this type will occur. In this case, you should try to re-select the appropriate application. Right-click on the file.userprofile file, and then select the "Open with ..." option "Select the default program" from the menu. Now select one of the installed applications from the above list and try again.

Manual Editing Windows Registry
If our system does not cope with the extension .USERPROFILE and summed up all automatic and semi-automatic methods of teaching it to this art, it remains manual editing the Windows registry. This registry stores all the information relating to the work of our operating system, including connecting file extensions with programs for their maintenance. Command Regedit. inscribed in the window "Search for programs and files" or "Run In the case of senior versions of the operating system, it provides us with access to the register of our operating system. All operations carried out in the registry (not even very complex, concerning the extension of the file.Userprofile) have a significant impact on the work of our system, so before conducting any modifications it is necessary to make sure that a copy of the actual registry is made. The section of interest - this is the key HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT.. The following instruction shows step by step, how to modify the registry, and specifically the entry in the registry containing information about the file.userprofile.
Step by step
- Click the "Start" button
- In the "Find Programs and Files" window (in the senior versions of Windows, this is the "Run" window) enter the "regedit" command and then approve the operation with the "Enter" key. This operation will launch the registry system editor. This tool will allow not only to view existing records, but also to modify them, add or delete manually. Due to the fact that the Windows registry is key to its work, all operations carried out on it should be judged and consciously. Careless elimination or modification of a non-comprehensive key may irreversibly damage the operating system.
- Using the CTR + F key, or the Editing and Options menu, find the extension it is interesting .Userprofile, scoring it in the search engine window. Approve by pressing OK or using the Enter key.
- Spare copy. It is extremely important to create a spare copy of the registry before making any changes in it. Each change has an effect on the action of our computer. In extreme cases, the erroneous modification of the registry can lead to the impossibility of re-starting the system.
- You are interested in the extension value, you can manually edit changing the keys assigned to the extension found .Userprofile. In this place you can also independently create the desired entry with the expansion of A.UserProfile if it is missing in the registry. All available options are located in a subwoofer (right mouse button) or in the Editing menu after the cursor is placed in the appropriate place on the screen.
- After editing an editing of the recording concerning the extension.userprofile Close the system registry. The introduced changes will enter life after re-launching the operating system.
In Windows Server, everywhere - on the command line, scripts, etc. You can use environmental variables that give an additional degree of freedom, as they can not be attached to absolute values, replacing them with a variable system. But, as practice has shown, many users are poorly focused on Environment Variables. This table is designed to become a prompt in everyday work with the Windows Server environment variables.

The environment variables used in batch (command) files allow you to do without specifying absolute paths to directories. For example, if the system disk letter is unknown in advance, we can always use the variable % SystemDrive%returning the letter of the disc on which the OS is installed. Also, variables are used to optimize the code - a repeated parameter (for example, a registry key) can be assigned a short variable and use it. This article discusses in detail various techniques of work with variables, as well as ways to change and create new variables. Now everything is in order.
Classification of environment variables
Summary
The Windows Shell (cmd.exe) is a very powerful system tool. Using batch files, you can automate a fair amount of tasks, and that is why they are often used to automatically install Windows. The skillful use of variables in batch files allows you to solve a wide range of questions. Working with the command shell becomes more efficient and at the same time simplifies the code of batch files. Other examples of using variables you can find on the pages of the site or forum. All examples used in this article are taken from the participants scripts, for which they thank you very much.
Terminology
Team shell - This is a separate software product that provides a direct connection between the user and the operating system. Text user interface of the command line provides an environment in which applications and utilities are executed with text interface.
cmd.exe. - Interpreter of the commands that the Windows command shell uses to translate the entered command to the format, understandable system.
Command Session can initiate as starting cmd.exe.and the launch of the batch file. In other words, the current command shell is created. Accordingly, the exit from this shell (for example, the end of the package file) terminates the command session.
User session (User session) begins from the moment of user login in the system (log on) and ends when log off (LOG OFF).
Windows variables are the emphasis on "s" in the second word (the meaning of the phrase is laid in the parental case and faithful stress: the variables of what? - Wednesdays!), In English versions of Windows - Wednesses - eNVIRONMENT VARIABLE)
Windows environment variables are used to configure operating systems. Not every user needs to be able to deal with these settings and put in these variables, but there are a couple of variables that you need to know all users of personal computers. We are talking about variables responsible for temporary storage of files - Temp. and TMP..
By default, the value of custom temporary (temp) variables - % UserProfile% \\ Local Settings \\ temp,
By default, the value of system time variables - \\ Windows \\ temp.
Therefore, in the first case, this is usually: " C: \\ Documents and Settings \\ User \\ Local Settings \\ temp"

Characteristics: 14.1 inches screen 1920 * 1080 IPS, Windows 10, 8 GB RAM, 256 GB M.2 SATA 2280 SSD, WiFi, keyboard backlight.
Due to the fact that in the family of Windows operating systems, a folder with temporary files for some reason is not cleared by itself, there may be a huge variety of different unnecessary files reaching a total size of up to several gigabytes. Among the temporary files, various viruses and bad scripts are periodically hidden, therefore the duty of each PC user is to regularly delete the contents of temporary folders.
For ease of deletion, it is better to change the default path to the simpler, the most optimal option - " C: \\ temp".
How to change Windows TEMP and TMP environment variables? - Very simple:
1. Right click on the icon " My computer"On the desktop (if it is a full-fledged icon, not a shortcut) or through the menu Start -\u003e My Computer -\u003e Properties:
2. Go to the tab " Additionally"And click down on the button" Environment Variables":
3. In the upper window " Variables of the user's environment"Select first the first line (TEMP variable) and click the button" Change":
4. Correct the value of the variable on the simpler - " C: \\ temp":
5. Repeat items 3 and 4 for a variable TMP.:
As a result, it should be possible:
6. Press alternately 2 times " OK".
In principle, the same can be done using the command line by executing the command: SET TEMP \u003d C: \\ temp
All Windows environment variables:
