You can also right click on "My Computer" select properties, select the
advanced tab, click the settings button in the profiles section select the
profile you want to move (you can't be logged in as the one you want to
move) and select "Copy To". Select the path you want to move it to.
Once that is done, go to computer management, right click the username,
select properties. On the profile tab, enter the path to the profile.
Now
it will look to the new path for the profile.
This is real useful if you keep user profiles on a server to allow roaming
profiles.

I would like to move all my "documents and settings" folder
to a different drive/directory (not only my documents), out of c:
same user is OK
MSFT has a KB article where you have to edit the registry
keys one by one (there are hundreds).
I figured somebody should have writen some utility that does
exactly that Looked on google, found COA2 and TweakUI to help
edit registry, but none is specific to what i want to do.
Plus, i think the registry sometime contains "aliases",ie
%userprofile%\documents and settings\user so searching for
c:\documents...\user may not find all occurences.
Can't believe MSFT didn't provide a utility to do this, even
on their tech forums their engineers shy away from this and
can't provide a simple solution. I think under W2K, it was
much more straightforward.
But somebody, somewhere, must have written a utility. No ?
