Is there a way to Force Windows 7 Temp profile? I want each user logs in to get into the Temp profile instead of windows creating one for him/her. Regards

That is what the guest account is for. Be sure to disable it after everyone is gone for security reasons Windows MVP 2010-11, XP, Vista, 7.

Based on the description, I think the Guest user is the best choice. For the AD questions, I suggest you ask in Directory Services forum: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverDS/threads Regards, MiyaMiya Yao TechNet Community Support

I have not noticed that capability with the AD schemas I have looked at. My AD forest is not that big but its respectable. Windows MVP 2010-11, XP, Vista, 7.
