Not sure of any automatic way of doing it, but you can use the windows "profile copier". Once the new "clean" profile has been made: Right click my computer > properties > advanced > user profiles > settings. Select the old account and click copy to.. choose the new user folder in documents and settings (this will warn that there is alreadyy a profile there and it will be cleared > just ok it. The last bit to do is change permission to use (or something very similar) change this to the new username (make sure you put it in the format DOMAIN\user) - this will copy the profile flawlessly to the new user. I think there may be quite a lot of people who would benefit from an automatic way of doing this - This question is asked at least once a month. Anyone have any suggestions on how to implement an automatic solution? Cheers, H
