USMT 5.0

We are using USMT for our win7 upgrade project. Old machines are winXP. I'm having problems getting network shortcuts to load on the new win 7 PC. All other data and shortcuts work, I see the network shortcuts in the mig file and can extract them out. I
just can't get loadstate to place them on the users desktop.
Thanks

Hi，
This is part of the CONFIG.xml, USMT can migrate these settings.
<component displayname="Taskbar and Start Menu" migrate="yes" ID="appearance_and_display\taskbar_and_start_menu">
<component displayname="Microsoft-Windows-stobject" migrate="yes" ID="http://www.microsoft.com/migration/1.0/migxmlext/cmi/microsoft-windows-stobject/microsoft-windows-stobject/settings"/>
<component displayname="Microsoft-Windows-explorer" migrate="yes" ID="http://www.microsoft.com/migration/1.0/migxmlext/cmi/microsoft-windows-explorer/microsoft-windows-explorer/settings"/>
</component>
The Start screen replaces the Start menu in Windows 8\8.1. This option still can be used in Windows 8\8.1
You can find more information in this link:

How to Block Themes, Wallpapers and other Display Customizations (DPI, Scaling, Window Color and Appearance) with USMT 5.0?

I'm doing something wrong, but I can't figure out what.
I've read some great write ups on the subject:
USMT Custom XML the Free and Easy Way
USMT
4.0 Custom Sample - Blocking Wallpaper and Theme Migration from Windows Vista and Windows 7
Blocking
Wallpaper Migration with USMT (or: you are a jerk)
and used part of the XML in their example, but the wallpaper, themes and other display customizations are still coming over. Now I'm trying to use MigXmlHelper.DestinationPriority() but really its just my last ditch effort.
From an elevated command prompt in C:\USMT\amd64\, I'm executing:
scanstate.exe E:\USMTBackup /config:nothemeuiconfig.xml /i:MigApp.xml /i:MigDocs.xml /i:MigUser.xml /i:unconditionalexclusions.xml /i:blockwallpaperandthemev3.xml /i:getlocalpsts.xml /i:inclusions.xml /ui:domain1\user1 /ue:*\* /vsc /c /o /nocompress /localonly /v:13 /l:\\path\to\scanstate.log /progress:\\path\to\scanstate_progress.log /listfiles:\\path\to\scanstate_listfiles.log

I generated a config.xml called nothemeuiconfig.xml and changed this:
<component displayname="Microsoft-Windows-themeui" migrate="yes" ID="http://www.microsoft.com/migration/1.0/migxmlext/cmi/microsoft-windows-themeui/microsoft-windows-themeui/settings"/>
To this:
<component displayname="Microsoft-Windows-themeui" migrate="no" ID="http://www.microsoft.com/migration/1.0/migxmlext/cmi/microsoft-windows-themeui/microsoft-windows-themeui/settings"/>
But themes, wallpapers - everything - still come over.
Opened a case with Microsoft, sent them:
the XML's I'm using
the command I used to generate the config.xml
the command I used for scanstate
the log files generated by scanstate
the command I used for loadstate
the log files generated by loadstate
Summary result of the MS case:
After much review & scrutiny, the command line and XML files are syntactically correct and rules are sound.
The articles I referenced in the ticket are indeed old and speak of an older version of USMT, so I can accept the possibility that something may have changed between USMT versions that render those suggested rules & instructions invalid.
Despite using
unconditionalExclude to unconditionally globally exclude objects, something else is trumping that rule, and there’s no way around that.
Even using
MigXmlHelper.DestinationPrioity() won’t help us here because, like above, something else trumps that rule, and there’s no way around that.
The last proposed suggestion is to disable the shmig component, which may or may not break or otherwise adversely affect the backup/restore of other things. (This may be too difficult to detect easily or in initial testing and the uncertainty doesn’t
give us confidence problems won’t arise as a result of this change. Also,
Ned Pyle's post post says NOT to, but then again that's an old post.)
Is this no longer possible or am I'm just doing it wrong?

Thanks for the reply
TimAmico!
I saw your responses on Friday & Saturday, but didn't reply because I wanted to think this over a bit and try to get a second opinion.
The 'Appearance and Display' component looks to have a has a number of sub-components.

</component>
</component>
If I'm understanding the XML correctly, setting 'Appearance and Display' to 'no' will not bring over any of the sub components:
Windows Games Settings: Microsoft-Windows-GameExplorer
Tarkbar & Start Menu: Microsoft-Windows-stobject
Tarkbar & Start Menu: Microsoft-Windows-explorer
Personalized Settings: Microsoft-Windows-uxtheme
Personalized Settings: Microsoft-Windows-themeui
Personalized Settings: Microsoft-Windows-shmig
Personalized Settings: Microsoft-Windows-shell32
Personalized Settings: Microsoft-Windows-CommandPrompt
If so, that, to me at least, represents a pretty significant change! We want the pinned items but not the backgrounds and themes so that specific change won't work for us, but glad to hear it meets your needs. (Also greatly appreciate your sharing
your results with us.)
I'll admit, even before reaching out to MS, the logs clearly show that the themes/backgrounds are all part of the 'Microsoft-Windows-shmig' component but dang it if I want something of substance (read: official documentation) that covers what exactly that
component handles. (I like to know what I'm potentially getting myself into.)

Possible to use the UDI Wizard for standalone USMT Online Restore?

I'm looking for a solution for a specific scenario. We are looking to use UDI for a replace scenario where we will use a UDI task sequence to backup USMT data to a USB drive on the old PC and turn around and restore that data on a new PC already
provisioned and configured computer.
My goal is use UDI task sequences but it appears that out of the box UDI task sequences only allow for restoration of user data during a standard replace Operating System Deployment task sequence and not a stand alone USMT restore data only task sequence.
Any ideas if this is possible to create a UDI driven USMT restore data only task sequence?

Hi,
Please try the steps below to see if it helps:
1. Uninstall-WindowsFeature -Name desktop-experience -Remove
2. Mount-WindowsImage -path c:\mount\ -Index 4 -ImagePath D:\sources\install.wim –ReadOnly
3. Add-WindowsFeature -Name desktop-experience -Source C:\mount\Windows\WinSxS
4. Install-WindowsFeature –name desktop-experience
It seems that the components needed to add the Desktop Experience feature back to the build are located in the SXS (side by side) folder of the install media and can be re-added using the DISM tool.
Please can you try with the following command and let me know if this resolves the issue in your environment
- dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:desktopexperience /source:D:\sources\sxs /limitaccess
You could also refer to the thread below to troubleshoot the issue:

Scanstate.exe from USMT 5.0 from Windows 8.1 ADK fails on Windows XP with "%1 is not a valid Win32 application"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To troubleshoot, we tried running the x86 version of scanstate.exe (from USMT from the Windows 8.1 ADK) manually by just double clicking on it on a few Windows XP SP3 systems and we get a similar error as seen below...
So, we thought maybe USMT from our Windows 8.1 ADK install maybe somehow corrupt, but downloading and installing it again results in the same error, so it does not seem to be a file corruption issue. The x64 version of scanstate.exe works
fine on 64-bit OS's, its just Windows XP SP3 (32-bit) we are seeing this error.
Has anyone successfully using scanstate.exe from USMT 5.0 from the Windows 8.1 ADK successfully to capture user state from a Windows XP SP3 (32-bit) system?
Regards,
JJ

Windows 8.1 ADK comes with a newer version of USMT (NOT 5.0) and crashes. I learned this today the hard way. I hope Windows 8.0 ADK's loadstate.exe works for restoring to a 8.1 machine.
Yesterday i used Windows Easy Transfer to move from XP to 7, and then re-did the backup in 7 so it would be compatible with 8.1, and it only restores files, not settings.
So i will test USMT 5.0 in this same scenario, because i have 30 machines to change to newer machines with 8.1

It is Possible to Migrate Local User Profile to Roaming Profile Using USMT?

Dear All,
1st, I'm following guide at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/142682 to copy user profiles to another user, but the problem is the 'Copy to' button is not active (grey). I try
using 3rd party tools, still no change.
2nd, I try to transfer local profile on the same machine and different user using Windows Easy Transfer, it's work and all of data has been restore to a new user. But not all App Settings is restored, when I open Outlook 2010 and Windows
Live Mail, there's need to enter password again. That is not problem for me.
3rd, After migrate/transfer (2nd step) I want to migrate from local profile to roaming profile, but user profile setting on local profile is not copied to roaming profile, such as Email setting need to create new account but all data is
not problem, because I have already configure on ADUC and GPMC.
My question is:
1. How to copy or move all Application settings on AppData Local folder to roaming profile?
2. How about USMT, it is possible to migrate user profile settings from local to roaming? if is the best tools, how to do this?
Please, advice...
Thanks,
Hendra

First, I dont understand why you're using the copy profile method. I'll make the assumption that you have a domain user account that you you need it's files and settings moving to another machine.
In that scenario then there's a simple guide here:
Migrate User Accounts
For Roaming Profiles and Redirected folders; you can follow the
Infrastructure Planning and Design (IPD) Guide for Windows User State Virtualization (USV).
It sounds like a mouthfull but it actually makes the whole process easy. There's also a video
here.

Check and Verify USMT IMG file before formatting the system

Hi Team,
We are using 2 phase approach for migrating from XP to windows 8.1 U1 since we have Config manager 2012 R2. Its a refresh, replace and baremetal scneario
So 1st TS will just do user state backup using ADK8.0 USMT and backup the data on SMP.
2nd TS will format the system, install OS,install Apps and then restore USMT data from SMP
I am looking for some way to check the usmt data on SMP for the system before system is formatted. Can anyone give some pointers to do that in 2nd task sequence? I want if data (img file) is not verified, system should not format and TS should fail.
Regards,

Hi,
Do not use the option /c .
If an errors occur during the capture process, the ScanState command will not continue to run and the TS will fail.
For more information, please review the link below:

Errors with USMT 4 Loadstate on some machines. Win 7 OSD

In my test lab my Win 7 OSD is working fine restoring user data with USMT hardlinking. As I started to test it on real machines in our test lab with real user profiles and data I started to see failures on some machines on the USMT data restore step. Below
is a section from my LoadState.log file that stood out to me with fatal "out of memory exception" errors.
Has anyone run into this issue before with USMT 4 ? Again in my test lab I see it restoring my profile fine but on machines with more profiles I have this problem.

Hi,
If you receive an error message that resembles the following:
Error [0x000000] Unhandled exception: OutOfMemoryException: (no exception message provided) class UnBCL::String *__stdcall Mig::pGetDateAndTime(void)[gle=0x00000091]
<var><Date><Time></var>,
Error [0x000000] Unhandled exception, abnormal termination[gle=0x00000091]
This issue occurs because of an error in the code for the progress log in USMT 4.0.
This hotfix will fix the issue.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2023591
Error [0x0802f5] CMediaManager::Close: m_pSelectedTransport->Close(1) failed

void __thiscall Mig::CUNCTransport::Close(int).[gle=0x00000006]
Have you joined to the domain yet? You need to be joined to the domain before loadstate runs so that it can map the SID to the username. I believe this is your problem just move
the domain join before your restore step.

Compatibility problem with USMT 6.3.9600 and Windows Vista

Hi,
We have a problem with USMT 6.3.9600 ()ADK 8.1) while running on Vista. At start we are receiving an error saying it is not a win32 application. USMT 6.2.9200 would work on Vista but not on Windows 8.1.
Any workaround?

For an example with multiple USMT versions, see:

USMT - post imaging through OSD - user profiles have .USMT extensions

We have recently started observing an issue with our Migration Task Sequence (XP to Windows 7) during the Restore User State. A couple of weeks ago, the TS seemed to have fallen off the rails for no apparent reason and would fail on the Reboot to WinPE
phase before starting to Apply the Windows 7 image. I restored a backup copy of the task sequence and disabled the now defunct one and had to change the Capture User State and Restore User State tasks from using the custom.xml to Networkandprinters.xml,
MigApp.xml and MigUser.xml
I've included two extracts of loadstate.log file which shows when the TS worked fine and the other one shows what's been happening since the change.   We've also confirmed via the Task sequence, that there is no reference to the custom.xml file
in there.
While the Task Sequence function fine..

Have you specified a custom.xml in the TS or the custom settings file?

USMT Errors - Request to SMP failed with error 0x80004005

The client I am at we are working on using USMT integrated with their OSD task sequence. Yesterday we setup a State Migration Point on the DP that is located at this office. We ran a task sequence for testing purposes that just basically does the Scan
State. The few machines we tested this task sequence on successfully completed the task.
This morning we have tried some more testing and now the task doesn't work. The job fails at the point where it is requesting user store space. The log files shows that it knows about the SMP and that it request access but it fails and continues
on trying to find another available SMP.
The first few attempts the errors are based on "Failed to connect to
\\SERVER.DOMAIN\SMPSTORED_241ADE445 (53)
"Cannot connect to http://SERVER.DOMAIN SMP root share"
"Request to SMP 'http://SERVER.DOMAIN' failed with error (Code 0x80004005) Trying next SMP.
"SMP request to 'http://server.domain" failed with error: E_SMPERROR_ENCRYPTKEY_EMPTY (103)
"ClientKeyRequestToSMP failed (0x80004005)
We have removed the SMP and have re-added it.

SCCM 2012 r2 Deploy USMT Don´t Restore User State

Hi everybody
I am migrating my computers from Win Xp to Windows 8.1,
with SCCM 2012 R2 with HardLink, my problem is that USMT does not restore the user state on all my computers, it does in some and not in others. the only difenrecia between the teams is the computer model and brand (Hp and Dell).
I use USMT 5.0 to capture the user state running on Xp and restored with USMT 6.3 for Win 8.1 (Now run the hotfix from Microsoft http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2910552 and it´s work )
Also try SMP, capture user state ... but not restores either ...
Anyone have any idea what might be happening

USMT - exclude folder c:\Notes but include some specific files in it

Hi,
my name is Paul, I live in Belgium and I'm fairly new to MDT and USMT. We're doing some testing because we want to implement LTI deployments. Since two weeks I'm testing USMT5. I created a Capture User Data Task Sequence and it worked great. All non-windows
folders in the C-drive were copied, all Favorites etc. Even the restore worked! So I was happy. :-) But one non-windows folder in the C:-drive is C:\Notes. This folder is almost 1GB and I only need four small files. I read all information I could find on the
internet but I didn't find any information or examples for my case. Most examples include a folder and exclude some files in it, but I want it the other way around !
Could you help me? So I want to exclude c:\Notes (and all the subfolders) and include c:\Notes\Data\names.nsf, c:\Notes\Data\bookmark.nsf, c:\Notes\notes.ini and c:\Notes\Data\username.id .
This is one of the versions I tried.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<migration urlid="http://www.microsoft.com/migration/1.0/migxmlext/mignotes">

<component type="Documents" context="System">
<displayName>Exclude Notes</displayName>
<role role="Data">
<rules>
<Exclude>
<objectSet>
<pattern type="File">C:\Notes\* [*]</pattern>

<pattern type="File">C:\Notes\Data\ [names.nsf]</pattern>
<pattern type="File">C:\Notes\Data\ [*.id]</pattern>
<pattern type="File">C:\Notes\ [notes.ini]</pattern>
</objectSet>
</include>
</rules>
</role>
</migration>

I believe the XML is case-sensitive, so try <exclude> instead of <Exclude>. Or you could try putting the exclude block after the include block.

USMT - admin password for protected content

What is the deal with this prompt when doing the USMT restore state? What exactly does this do? What is the "protected content" they are referring to?

ever figure this out ?

UDI Wizard - Capture/Restore USMT data Page Question

I'm having some trouble figuring out why on a new pc deployment after a pxe boot on my select target page of the UDI defaults to local and everything else is greyed out. I would like to be able to choose No Data to Restore or Network. I can get
the network location to become selected by default but it is greyed out and selected however the local is not greyed out and if i click on Local I can't click back to Network. Also how to I pre-populate the password for the account to use for the backup.
I did get the domain\user pre-filled. I tried adding OSDUserStateKeyPassword=P@ssw0rd1 in my customsettings.ini file but that didnt seem to work.
Thanks!

Nope I didn't lock anything. I had it set to restore as I would only want to restore any data if im booting to PE.
I did manage to figure it out I think but I am not certain why it works the way it does. So if you remove the volume page it appears to default to unchecked, partition and format disk 0. Perhaps this can be set in the customsettings.ini by some
value. By placing this page back I can check and uncheck the box and replicate the results I am getting (unchecked) plus the result I want (checked) but I don't understand why it would default to being unchecked or even matter if I remove the page. I
certainly don't need or want the page in the wizard. Plus if you are going to deploy an OS from PE anyways doesn't the TS always reformat the drive as it would in a new computer scenario? It's set to Restore data anyways on Select Target. It
should only not reformat if you do a refresh which is run from within windows since it would store USMT data on the local disk as opposed to the network or USB drive.
Upon leaving that page in and testing my USMT share, which is directly mapped back to where the replace TS runs USMT and places its data, I can connect fine but it says that there is no directory that contains backed up user data which I don't really understand
why. There are sub folders that appear to be named in HEX and some have a USMT sub folder with a USMT.MIG file in them. I figured the way it would work is that it would allow me to select any folder i want to pick from to restore user data. Perhaps
not?? I need to figure out a way when i run a replace(IE Manual Backup) TS that it backs up and places data in a computer name folder rather than the 8E344E42B2...etc name under the SMPSTOREd_62FB22D0$ share. I assume this can be set in the customsettings.ini
file.
So ultimately I would like to run a new pc scenario TS and choose to either be a new pc (no data to restore) or replacement pc (choose data to restore from running the replace TS within windows) This is more a manual way of doing a replace pc scenario
rather than assigning X to be the old pc and Y the new and then automating everything in SCCM. Because sometimes we want to control what we restore and when we restore data on computers. I think if I can get all that working the way I envision
it if possible I would like to still have it work by changing the USMT to store its data in raw file format rather than in a .MIG file so if need be someone can manually poke through a users backup and get any particular file they want at any time.

USMT Copies Data but does not restore data.

Can someone help me to shed some lite on a problem we are having? I am running an OSD task in SCCM2012R2. The Task Has the USMT option selected and enabled. When I run the OSD task on workstation I can see it run, I can even go to the directory
and see the data being backed up.
Now here is the problem, It won't restore. I can log back into the workstation (after OSD) using the exact same ID and none of the previous data is there:
No wallpaper, Bookmarks, Music, Documents, etc.
Ideas?

If there is no loadstate log file, it means that the action didn't even start. Are there specific things configured on the options tab of that step. Also, did the task sequence finish completely?
One last thing, make sure that your format step does NOT format your hard disk (so look at the options tab to see when it performs the actions of the step). Hard-links are stored locally so re-formatting your hard disk will cause a lose of your data.
