Is there any tool that can be used to backup all user accounts
authentication information? In addition I would like also to backup their
profile location and
profile type. I want to use this backup to restore all the user accounts
in case
I need to reinstall the system.

Just image the system and store the image on another hard drive. If this is
a business you don't want to take the time to reinstall Windows and set
everything up again when you could just restore an image and be up and
running in a few minutes. I prefer Acronis True Image Echo for corporate
workstations. If you have a server, they have server versions too.
