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

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

2 Things to check.

Unhide hidden files

Open up My computer. Go to Tools > Folder Options > View tab.
Check the 'Show Hidden Files and Folders button.
Then choose 'Apply to All Folders'
Then OK/APPLY

Next reboot and log in as a local admin account that is not the account
you want to copy.

Right click the 'My Computer' Icon and select properties>advanced>user
profiles and see if it is still grayed out.....

Hi Mike, thanks for your answer.

My option folder was already to "'Show Hidden Files and Folders button"
:-(

If you have any other idea, do not hesitate.
