-====== Change of Users Folder In Windows Remotely ======
-===== Intro : this is a research, and I don't put it into practice =====
-**This is a research work:** I plan to put it into practice, but at the present moment, I've didn't to this yet. Take it at your own risk.
-===== My notes =====
-http://www.nextofwindows.com/how-to-change-user-profile-location-in-windows-8-without-registry-hack/
-El procedimiento para hacerlo es sencillo:
-. camibar por registry la ubicación de los perfiles:
-http://www.nextofwindows.com/how-to-change-user-profile-default-location-in-windows-7/
-. reiniciamos máquina y entro yo solito: me creará un perfil en la nueva ubicación e:\users
-. muevo todos los perfiles a la nueva ubicación y hago lo que dice aquí:
-http://www.nextofwindows.com/how-to-change-user-profile-location-in-windows-8-without-registry-hack/
-. el único que no se podrá mover de la antigua ubicación es el mío, adm-rlunaro: reservar
-. finalizo pasos y creo el enlace virtual y toda la pesca
-. reinicio
-. vuelvo a entrar y copio a mano los ficheros que me falten a mi perfil.
-Y tan contentos.
-===== Intro =====
-For the purpose of this manual, I will consider that I want to move all the "c:\documents and settings" folder to "e:\documents and settings". The destination machine is a Windows 7 server, but I think the procedure is at least correct for a Windows 8 server.
-===== Create the e: folder and give it permissions =====
-I've created a folder in e: and I've make sure that the permissions are exactly the same (properties -> security -> advanced). Restart the machine, to make sure the changes work.
-If you are not specially keen on permissions, take this steps:
-. remove the "allow inheritable permissions...":
-{{ :windows:01.png |}}
-Upon the question "copy / remove / cancel", answer "remove" to get rid of all the previous permissions.
-{{ :windows:02.png |}}
-. insert using the "add" button, the proper permissions. Copy them from the original folder. In my case ''c:\documents and settings''.
-===== DOESN'T WORK: Copy the "default user" "all users" folder and make sure the permissions are copied also =====
-Because in a normal session these folders are used and can't be copied, I've created a batch file:
-<code bat>
-rem
-rem copier.bat
-rem
-touch "e:\pruebas\copy-operation-started.txt"
-robocopy "c:\Documents and Settings\temp" "e:\users\temp" /mir
-touch "e:\pruebas\copy-operation-after-first-step.txt"
-robocopy "c:\Documents and Settings\All Users" "e:\users\All Users" /mir
-touch "e:\pruebas\copy-operation-after-second-step.txt"
-robocopy "c:\Documents and Settings\Default User" "e:\users\Default User" /mir
-touch "copy-operation-finished.txt"
-</code>
-And programmed an Scheduled Task.
-The ''e:\pruebas'' is a shared folder, so I can check when the operation has started and finished without logging into the computer.
