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

El procedimiento para hacerlo es sencillo:

1. camibar por registry la ubicación de los perfiles:

2. reiniciamos máquina y entro yo solito: me creará un perfil en la nueva ubicación e:\users 3. muevo todos los perfiles a la nueva ubicación y hago lo que dice aquí:

4. el único que no se podrá mover de la antigua ubicación es el mío, adm-rlunaro: reservar 5. finalizo pasos y creo el enlace virtual y toda la pesca 6. reinicio 7. 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

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:

1. remove the “allow inheritable permissions…”:

2. insert using the “add” button, the proper permissions. Copy them from the original folder. In my case c:\documents and settings.
