Basically I've switched domains and I would like to know (if possible) how to get the local administrative accounts' profile/settings (ie desktop, favs, etc) into the new xp account.

All help appreciated.

Slowdown? What slowdown? Didn't you know this was a slideshow?

Have you tried using the files and settings transfer wizzard. You log on as the old account, run the wizzard (be carefull with the files part as it will take nearly everything with it. You might want to just do the settings) then log on to the new account and run it again but apply the settings this time.

Hope this helps.

goto c:\documents and settings and you should find a folder with the name of the user accounts. Go into the folder and browse and u'll find the folder favorites and other stuff like desktop. Just copy them into the same folders into other user accounts and that's all.
