| | Profile migration Hi - I have a need to migrate a users profile on a Vista machine to a new profile on the same machine. Old user: corp\first.last New user: corp\first.last The users have different SIDs (don't ask, it was a mistake but it's done now) - so the new user shows up in docs and settings as first.last.CORP. I need to migrate the settings from the old SID account to the new SID account without losing anything. Any help? -- Alex, MCSE, SysAdmin |
