Issues with Roaming Profiles

G

Guest

We have several WIN 2000 SP4 machines in our office and I have recently
noticed that some of the machines are freezing during critical times. I have
looked in the event viewer logs under application and I have noticed there is
a Userenv error and in the error it states (Windows cannot unload your
registry file. If you have a roaming profile, your settings are not
replicated. Contact your administrator.
DETAIL - Access is denied. , Build number ((2195)).

What happenes is this service seems to take up all the sytem resources when
it tries to write to the registry which in turn freezes the machine for
around 30 sec.

Does anyone know about this service and how to disable it as I cannot let
this continue specially when it causes the machines to freeze.

Cheers
Pete

Thanks for that info. So, basically, if I want a user to have the ability to
read encrypted email in Outlook on multiple machines then they need to be
setup as a roaming profile?

What does encryption have to do with it? If you want a user to get his/her
profile settings on multiple computers, yes, you really do need roaming
profiles. It also allows you to back up favorites, desktop items, etc.,
pretty easily, as well as replace malfunctioning workstations with little
manual tweaking required.
