Shawn,
Since you had to recreate the user accounts, they'll have received new SIDs and new profiles. You'll want to copy the OLD profile INTO the new profile. During the profile copy to function, be sure to specify the new user account or the everyone account as permitted to use, then copy to the new profile location. On the individual PC with the profiles, right click the My Computer icon, choose properties-then advanced tab, user profiles. You may also want to, after the copy, reset the ownership of everything within that profile to the new owner. Overall, you should be able to get most of the profile settings back to original this way, however if there are components within that are specific to the old-no-longer existent SID, those will likely be lost. I've not done this to specifically recreate a profile, however have done this many times to 'replicate' settings between profiles for accounts. These aren't roaming profiles, right?

How can I point a particular user login to a certain profile subdirectory on a local machine? ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [email protected] Subject: Profiles Date: Mon, 25 Aug 2008 08:21:19 -0700 I had an individual delete some user id's out of ad. I had to recreate the id's, as a result it created new local profiles. I tried adding the new id to the share, propogating it down then have the person log in and it still creates a new local profile. How can I have the person log in and have their old profile apply (without copying the old profile to the new one). thanks ________________________________ Talk to your Yahoo!
