Status: offline 		Hi,

I have 2 partitions (C and E), I redirect the Docs & Settings to the E-drive.
In case of a refresh scenario, the OS gets installed on C and E stays untouched (like it's supposed to be).

When I log on on the fresh installed PC with the appropriate UserID, a new profile gets created on the E-drive (userID.domain).
How can I avoid this? How can I tell Windows that it can continue using the existing User profile?
Anyone an idea?

Thanks Nico

No but I'm not restoring anything in this scenario. Wipe C-drive and leave the E-drive.

For the Replace scenario where a backup\restore is required I use robocpy.
My customer where I'm located now, is an environment where a user has full admin rights so he could store his data where ever he wants on his C-drive. (we will change that in the near future)
Following my tests USMT was quite slow backing up data outside the Docs & Settings.
