user profile

I recently installed an SSD in my laptop and moved the HDD to the secondary drive (I have room for two). I did a few of the prescribed steps for optimal SSD usage (moved user profiles to HDD, moved temp directory and page file, etc). Initially I was able to image only my C drive (about 30GB...

Recently I reinstalled windows 7 Ultimate. So, I got one of those "windows.old" folders with all my old stuff in it. I take all my stuff out, but for some reason it wont let me delete the windows old folder. It says "This is no longer located in C:\ Verify the items location and try again"...

I am having problems with a Windows 7 64bit user profile. The computer will not login into windows at all. When I login it sits for awhile and then just goes back to the login prompt. There is only one account on the computer and its an administrator so I can't use the administrator account...

Hi, We've recently deployed Windows 7 64 bits in our school labs using MDT and on our image we've defined stuff in our "Default user" profile to those things are imported to any new accounts that logs on the computers. We're also using DeepFreeze to ensure that computers will be stable...

I was unable to see folder 'AppData' in C:\users\steven with explorer (W7). I tried unselecting 'read only', this didn't help. I then checked 'hidden'. I also applied these actions to c:\users (Stupid I know). Now I can't see c:\users and my favorites have disappeared in IE.

How do you use Windows 7 in a corporate world with a default profile that has all our apps loaded? XP did not have this problem and was very user friendly on a domain. W7 is not. Average users logging into this All-In-One we purchased cannot create their own profile and hit the domain.

hi, i wish to redirect my shell folders, i.e., my documents, music, etc. i know i might use the 'include folder' option, but it does not redirect the default location, it includes a reference to the included folder. i tried the change keys in the regedit, but somehow, nothing had changed. the...
