Does Power Options (Schemes such as Balanced, High performance or Custom) get migrated using USMT 4.0 tool??
Hi, My query is wrt USMT migration. Whether USMT tool (4.0) migrates Power Options (found under Control Panels->Power Options->Prefered Plans on Windows 7) to another machine which is Windows 7 again. I see that there are atleast one default Power Plans such as Balanced Plan, can we migrate those settings such as Turn off the display, Turn Off harddisk, Hibernate after etc etc) ?? Does USMT support migration of these Power Plans settings from either of the Windows flavours (Such as from XP to Windows 7 or Windows 7 to Windows 7 something like that) ? Please let me know ASAP.

Hi, Please understand that USMT is used to safely migrates User Profiles. This is not include the power settings. However, we can change Power Management settings during Sysprep. Please refer to.

Power management is not in user profile, it is computer "property". I would recommend to set power schema in common image. Regards Milos

Hello, You can also use powercfg /export to save off the Power schemes and powercfg /import to get them into a new system.Thanks, Darrell Gorter [MSFT] This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
