Remove roaming profiles windows 7




















Scott, Ummm I was able to resolve the issue but the answer to the problem is still outstanding. I resolved the original issue by wiping out my profile and recreating it from scratch In addition, romaing profiles do not work over a wireless connection, regardless of policy changes.

So, I set up romaing profiles in my small office three servers and around 8 workstations virtual and real , and if I disconnect my laptop from the wired network While wireless I can not update my profile at any time, and if I restart any laptop while off the wired network I get the obligitory You have been logged in with a temporary profile On previous Windows builds a temporary profile was created if the local SAM recognized you and logged you in, but for some reason the profile associated with your User SID could not be loaded properly..

Hence, you would get a "Default User" priofile and the message would tell you that if you make changes they will NOT be saved when you log out I have also stared to see similar results on a stand alone workstation that I built while wired, then placed a wirelss LAN adapter in later.

Now, while untethered it allows logon, it authenticates properly, but it does not appear to get "computer based" policy from AD I believe that the wireless connectivity in Windows 7 is not complete, or there are some AD setting that I am missing I've tried every blog suggestion and recommended setting in a Server environment No joy! Funny things happen when Windows 7 detects a wireless network adapter Offline files gets enabled and all sorts of features that wouldn't necessarly be important for an untethered workstation on a secured LAN I sure hope MS gets this all fixed before the scheduled release Saturday, June 13, PM.

I am also getting an issue with "temporary profiles" on Win7 RC. When I turn on the computer and login, I get a temp profile first. I have to log out, then login again to get my normal profile.

I'm not on a domain. Wednesday, June 17, AM. Thursday, August 13, AM. I'm also having similar problems - I'm running a Windows domain that has been hosting Windows , XP, Vista and now Windows 7 roaming profiles and folder redirection for years. I had noticed the odd failure to update roaming profiles over wireless connections here and there but it wasn't really a big problem for me. However, I just upgraded a laptop that has been running with no issues on Vista Ultimate - to Windows 7 Ultimate.

Everything there was working great until I logged on with a roaming profile - and then logged off. It took me 12 minutes to log off! This is an Acer T laptop with wireless N connections at MBps through a dual-band Linksys wireless router about 25 feet away.

No problems there. I log in with the roaming profile which takes about 90 seconds - longer than Vista and then I log out and wait for 12 minutes I connected to a hard-wire and tried again - now it's about 50 seconds to log in and 2. I created a fresh account with a roaming profile - it takes about 1. I have reinstalled Windows on the machine twice - same problem. I'm using the final release of Windows 7, by the way It will justify removing Windows 7 and forcing me back to Vista, which I never expected to encounter!

Microsoft, are you hearing these comments Sunday, October 25, PM. The Roaming Profiles is still an issue with Windows Wednesday, October 28, AM. Windows Bubbles a warning that You are being logged on with a Temporary Profile". I actually want my Existing profile to be loaded if I am on or off-line Traditionally, Windows keeps the SID of the profile in two places.

I'm assuming that you are saying that if I remove the ProfileList user SIDS it will create a new key there when I log in, hence Windows will start the user profile creation process, and then say I'm assuming that, Windows will NOT bubble the message during that process The question then becomes What happens the second time after the key gets created?

The problem is Windows Ballooning the message that I am being logged on with a temporary profile. Users who go mobile with their laptops get this message and it tells them things potentially aren't working! The Wireless issue is obvious If the wireless connectivity is NOT there at the login prompt there is no way for LSA to contact the domain and get a response.

This should be a warning to those who purchase hardware for a corporate environment to make sure that the wireless hardware comes up internally early in the process Stew ME. At first after having so many problems I deleted the account completely from the Domain and then recreated again Mee2 I have huge problems with Roaming Profiles, and redirecting My Documents to a network drive Error and after reading so much I think that at the moment there is no quick and clear solution to this Thursday, October 29, PM.

Here you can choose the profiles to delete. Using this way ensures that all user settings are deleted including any registry settings associated with the deleted profile. To come back to the original problem of temp profiles when logging on wireless, there's a GPO setting to wait for the network before logging on. Thursday, December 10, AM. Thanks for the reply, Deleting profiles from the Users folder has never been a proper way of deleting profiles I understand using the "user profiles" tab is the correct way of doing this In addition, the GPO for waiting for wireless again has been implemented and discussed inthe previous threads Thursday, December 10, PM.

Hi everyone, I was experiencing exactly the same issue. This out of the way, I was still experiencing the Temporary Profile issue with Windows 7. I deleted my profiles the "dirty" way as listed above by simply deleting the folder. Checked the WOW64 keys and couldn't see the profile listed so all good. I will definitely use the System Control Panel Applet from now on.

Now, the bizarre thing that I believe fixed it. I was doing a lab on Symantec Endpoint Protection Suite and had to disable the Windows Firewall to push the install out. Got it installed and working with the firewall component on. I created a Default User. If you are doing this as well, we might be onto a track here. Now, since disabling Windows Firewall and using the 3rd party firewall with special file sharing rules, my roaming user profile works.

Keep me posted and if I suss it out I'll let you know, every bit of help on here has been a life saver! Aussie Tech. Tuesday, December 22, PM. I am also experiencing major problems with Windows 7 Workstation in a Domain with roaming user profiles. I get assigned a temporary profile. I am also unable to copy a profile to the netlogon server share using the copy to method by renaming the default profile temporarily and putting my profile inplace.

I'm not sure whats going on? Sometimes I wonder if Microsoft actually tests their features before they deploy the software. Friday, January 8, PM. I'm not sure how your are copying the default user? The way I do it is: Create a local user so that group policy does not apply.

Log on as that user and set it up the way I want. If I'm creating a Vista or above default user when I tell it the path for the default user, i type the same path with. Is this how you're doing it? Wednesday, February 3, PM. I had some odd issues with Roaming profiles when trialling windows 7. I was getting the temporary profile issue despite being able to find and browse the old profile in the share etc. What I stumbled across is that in the profile folder windows 7 shoudl create a. V2 subfolder and profile directory structure within it.

My guess is the script that creates the subdirectory cannot accept a path that IS a directory itself. So in order to migrate a profile I would use the Microsoft Users and settings migration tool if possible else manual copypasta to migrate the settings to a new local profile. V2 folder in their roaming profile. Failing that you now have a working roaming profile and can at least do it manually. There are still some annoyances with profiles that make this harder that I would like to voice however: It seems the.

V2 folder is created with permissions to the user's AD account and system only. No other accounts have any permissions whatsoever by default not even view the current permissions. That can be gotten round by taking ownership of.

V2 on the server and setting permissions, if you have access to their password or have them sat next to you but it's far from elegant even if you did manage to script it all neatly. You can't manually create a folder called. V2, it throws up a file naming error. I've not tried using a third party tool to create the folder or doing it via script yet. This might make life easier perhaps as creating the folder prior to first login allows you to set permissions how you want and copy data across folder to folder much like you would do for XP profiles if you do it manually without 3rd party AD management tools.

I'm assuming you must be able to do this somehow as windows does it when you first run it, I suspect it's just an explorer thing not liking dot as a leading character and I'm sure it can be gotten around.

Wednesday, February 17, PM. To all, As I'm writing this I am at a remote location with my laptop and I've just seen the information bubble that tells me there is something wrong with my roaming profile and I am being logged on with a temporary profile In the past I have been able to seperate out much of the profile and give the "traveling user" what they need I can still do this, but it now comes down to defining the paths to the "default" Libraries This is different, but the same.

As for the access rights and needing to take ownership on the roaming profiles on the server side, one needs to make sure you set the Root folder security options properly. The exception to this is the AppData folder however if you are trying to preserve this folder as well note you may be copying over the issues that are trying to fix.

Step 7. Before you log off that computer go to the path you noted in step 1 and delete or rename the roaming profile for that users on the network. Tip: To avoid having to take owner ship of the roaming profile be sure you have enabled the Add the Administrator security group to roaming users profiles setting.

Find the Profile that has the ProfileImagePath of the users you are fixing and delete that entire key. TIP: If this is successful make sure you get the use to log off straight away so the new profile is save to the network which will then propagate to any other computer when then log on.

I did keep their probably-corrupt profile folder on the server, just renamed it before the restoration job ran, in case I have to recover some documents from that for them. We have also found here that we need to give user SYSTEM Full access to the profile and its sub-folders on the server, so it pays to check the Ownership and Access Permissions on the profile folder and sub-folders once the restoration job has run, and ensure you ripple any changes down to all the sub-folders :.
