Hello,
After moving a computer into a domain and creating a new user account, when
you local it creates a new local profile e.g.
user.domain within the docs and settings folder.
Now I would like to using the excising profile on the machine, and I
remember that there are some registry edits that you could use on Windows
NT, are there registry edits you can use on windows XP? And what are they as
I cant remember.
Thanks,
Rob.
