do you know of any way to assign mandatory profiles to
user accounts on workgroup (not domain-joined) machines?
 
The steps should be outlined in KB article 307800:
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=307800

Hope that helps.

The method describes copying an existing profile into place. Can
similar tactics be used to preset the .Default profile from which new
accounts are created? I want all new accounts to inherit these:
- smaller IE cache size
- alternate locations for user shell folders
- show all files, show .ext, show full paths
- classic UI, Explorer and IE search, etc.

Thanks!
