Windows 7 does not load roaming profile
I run in a windows server 2003 environment. I upgraded one of my machines to windows 7 so I could get ready for a full deployment. I was able to join it to the domain with no problem. When I tried to log on, it logged me on but with a temporary profile and it gave me the message saying windows could not load your roaming profile and has logged you on with a temp profile. I want to know how to have windows 7 load my current roaming profile which was created in a windows xp profession environment. thanks.

Hi, To work around this problem, use one of the following methods: Method 1. Delete the source user account. Method 2. Delete the SID entries for the source user account from the following registry subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList Please note: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry. Dale
