Hello!

I wonder if anyone knows a few Vista tricks as I can't seem to find an easy way for copying profiles.

At work on my Xp machines, once I had setup windows. logged in and customised and setup my desktop, proxy settings, and other profile settings, I simply used to log in as another user, copy the profile to default folder and then from that moment onwards, everyone got the new profile settings when they logged in.

Now we have a room full of Vista machines and I've logged in and set everything up as I want it. If I wanted to copy my profile to the default user on that particular machine, that is fine, I use the profiles settings in system properties.
However, if I want to now take this newly created customised profile and span it accross the whole room, I'm stumped as to how to do it.

I've tried many ways but they often lead to Vista loading a temporary profile which more or less messes up everything.

I'd like to be able to just copy my profile folder onto my memory stick and then quickly copy it into the default on all PC's round the room. But Vista seems to make it harder for this to work compared to the good old XP days.

Maybe there is a way. Does anyone know how to do this easily and quickly ?


Many thanks for all your help,
