Kliewerj,

Try this:

1. Log onto system (preferably as admin).

2. Goto start/run/regedt32

3. Locate key - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows

NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList

4. This will show all readable profiles on the machine, it may but probably will
not show information leading to the users original profile.

5. Navigate to C:\Documents and Settings\UsersName and note the profile name of the
original profile, usually the same minus the domain information. Make a note of it.

6. Now go back to regedt and manually edit the duplicate profile location in the
ProfileImagePath key to that of the original e.g:

Original - %SystemDrive%\Documents and Settings\jsmith

Duplicate - %SystemDrive%\Documents and Settings\jsmith.domain

Change the duplicate to point to the original profile, save the change.

7. Now have the user log back in, and they should now again be operating on their
original profile - bring on huge relief!
