PROFILESDIR and other variables


Recommended Posts

I believe I mentioned in one or two threads that the variable PROFILESDIR was available for use, and I would like to tell those whom I may have mis-lea, that I myself was mis-led. You are able to set the location of the users profiles with this entry in WINNT.SIF, but the variable itself is not availabe.

I interupted setup at the cdlines.txt point, and discovered this list of available variables:

ALLUSERSPROFILE=C:\Documents and Settings\All Users
CommonProgramFiles=C:\Program Files\Common Files\
COMPUTERNAME=XXXXXX
ComSpec=C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe
Path=C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\system32\Wbem
PATHEXT=.COM;.EXE;.BAT;.CMD;.VBS;.WS
ProgramFiles=C:\Program Files
PROMPT=$P$G
SystemDrive=C:
SystemRoot=C:\WINDOWS
Upgrade=False
USERPROFILE=C:\Documents and Settings\Default User
windir=C:\WINDOWS
__PROCESS_HISTORY=C:\WINDOWS\system32\setup.exe

Barring any typos, this list should be correct. The actual values of the variable, of course, may vary.
