BigDaddy Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I have a laptop here with Vista Professional and I would like to rename an account. But if I rename it using the Acount preferences in control panel then the name of the directory still remains.I heard there is a way to create a new account and then migrate all of the settings, docs, files,... into the new one.HOw could I accomplish this?

Tripredacus Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Erm do you mean Vista Business?You may be able to use the User State Migration Tool. It is designed for mass migrations but I am sure you can do it for just one account.http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc722032.aspxI haven't used it before, just read about it in the Resource Kit, and I remember it being on an MCP test.
