How can I fix fault C:\windows\system32\sdclt.exe as I can't access my profile (windows downloads ruin my life).

sdclt.exe is the process for the Vista backup tool. It's also present in Windows 7 and probably 8.

It should not prevent you from login into your computer.

You should read this article from Microsoft:

From the information here: http://windowshelp.net/windows-processes/sdclt.exe.aspx
It's not a critical process, but is needed to perform backups and restoring those.

There are instances of malwares masquarading under that file name, but they usualy reside outside of the \Windows\system32\ folder, but it's not impossible for some to actualy replace the legitimate file with a malicious one.

Use some anti-virus to scan your computer and correct the problem if you have an infection.
