'Copy to' option is grayed out for unknown accounts ?

[bigstyle]

Hello,

I want to copy users profiles from an old domain (nt4) to another one.
My problem is that my old profile is listed as "unknown account" in the

User profiles tab and I cannot "copy to" the profile because the option

is grayed out.


I am quite sure that I have already used this functionality for Unknown

user so I dont think that s the main problem.


Do you have any idea please ?


Thanks

In that case you will have to manually copy the specific folders you need
from the old user profile folder under documents and settings. I would not
copy the whole profile however as some folders contain computer/user
specific info but my documents, desktop, etc should be fine. You may also
want to post in the setup_deployment newsgroup to find the best procedure to
handle such old profiles to make sure everything works the way you expect.

Thanks for your answer.

Do you know why such thing is happening ?
i dont understand why in another society everything was working
perfectly and there, this option is grayed out.

It s quite strange and I would like to understand.
I dont know if other tools like USMT or moveuser.exe can resolve my
problem.

Thanks.
If you still have any ideas, do no hesitate ;-)
