Re: Copying Local Profile to Roaming Profile

I am at a loss also if none of the administrator accounts works even the
local administrator account. You may also want to post in the
Microsoft.public.windowsxp.setup newsgroup to see if anyone there has an
idea. One thing I would try is to run the support tool netdiag on the
computer you are trying to do this on to make sure that no problems are
shown for dns, dc discovery, domain membership, or trust/secure channel.
The support tools are on the install CD for XP in the support/tools
older. --- Steve

Steven,

Thanks for getting back to me.

I've got two domains in my forest. I logged in on the domain admin
accounts
for both and neither one of them would allow me to copy ANY of the
profiles.
The same was true for the local admin account.

What am I missing?

Are all the local user profiles showing this or just this one? If you

have other user profiles then logon with another domain user or a test
domain user to create one to see if the same thing happens. If the
problem
persists you could consider having the user use File and Transfer
Settings
Wizard to backup her files and settings to a file, delete her user
profile
after backing it up in total and making sure she exports any EFS
certificate/private key if EFS is used by her, and then have her logon
again
to create a new user profile and then restore her files and settings to
see
if that makes a differerence in case there was some sort of
rruption. --- Steve

I have a user currently using a local profile. I'm trying to migrate
her
to
a roaming profile.

When I log in as ANY administrator (local or domain) account the "Copy
To"
button is grayed out for the local profile I want to copy. I've
restarted
the machine each time I logged into an administrator level account to
be
sure
that nothing from the user's profile is starting on login; but have had
no
luck.

How can I get this information copied?
