USMT is not transferring My Documents files

[Snake Oil]

I'm using USMT v2.6.1 to move user local profiles from XP workgroup to
an NT domain. I run scanstate as follows:

scanstate \\fs1\migrate\<username> /user:<username> /I:sysfiles.inf
/I:migsys.inf /I:miguser.inf /I:migapp.inf /Q /s /u /v:6
/l:c:\logs\scan.log /o /localonly


Scanstate executes without errors. Loadstate also executes without any
error.

loadstate /u /s /MU:<username> /x /MD:<domain> /v:6
/l:c:\logs\restore-<username>.log \\fs1\migrate\<username>


Outlook PST files and mail settings are migrated as expected.
However, the My Documents and Favorites folders are always empty - the
contents of these folders are not migrated.

What am I missing?


Thx

Do you have folder redirection or roaming profiles enabled? Either of these
could cause this issue (folder redirection would show a different My
Documents and Favorites folder after logon; roaming profiles could overwrite
the restored profile when the user first logs in).

Digging up a couple of day's old topic, but I'm having the same issue.
Also applies to Desktop as well. The only thing that migrates are the
account settings for outlook.

It ran fine once, but has not run correctly since. No roaming profiles,
no errors, when I try with the /compress- option, I can see the files
are not getting copied over.
