Hi All,<br />
<br />
We have just upgraded our network and deployed a SBS 2008.<br />
<br />
Our client PCs run Windows 7.<br />
<br />
We want to be able to preserve the user profiles on the PCs, previously on XP we would do this by joining the new domain and then renaming the new profile to something else, and then rename the old profile to the original new profile name.<br />
<br />
In Windows 7 this process doesnt work. does anyone have any tips/steps to help this process?<br />
<br />
Many thanks<br />
<br />
Paul

Windows 7 profile migration

Windows 7 is an operating system from Microsoft. Features include multi-touch support, a redesigned Windows Shell with a new taskbar, referred to as the Superbar, a home networking system called HomeGroup, and performance improvements.

Windows 7

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.
