Thank you for responding -- that was very close but not quite what I needed.
The first article clones the config. for new users. It can be useful in a
lot of ways, (I may indeed do that for other purposes). My particular need
is to revamp the system account, and that account was created before I got
to become the Admin. in the first place, so the default power settings are
still "stuck" in the dumb default of "keep the computer running forever".
Hey Microsoft, maybe you should think about the environment once in a while.
The second article copies profile files, explicitly omitting the NTUSER.*
files. I suspect replacing ALL the system profile files with some user
profile is going to do more harm than good. I only want to transfer power
save settings.
