Keeping Windows profile intact when joining/unjoining a domain
Is there a way NOT to create a new Windows profile when first joining a domain - but make a local profile work? Same with unjoining - a way to switch back to a workgroup - converting a profile that was created in joining a domain to a local workgroup profile? Trying to keep profiles without having to recreate and copy data and setup applications.
Thanks very much for the help.

psychogr - thanks, this is what I usually do anyway. Trying to save time in the copy process here. Nezteek - thanks this answers one of my 2 needs. Piji and Joesinc - I know how profiles are sensitive and I probably would go with joesinc if I were to go that route. Thanks
Go to the local profile folder, select everything except Ntuser.* files.
Copy everything to the domain profile folder and you are set to go..
