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..

All user profiles have defaulted to High Contrast Theme

This is in an academic, RDP only environment. 3 server 2012 machines, 2 of them are DC's. The two with the problem happen to be the DC's
A student changed his/her theme to High Contrast, for whatever reason, everyones theme was changed, except Administrator. Users connect via NComputing thin clients.
Ive removed the High Contrast theme from Resources/Ease of Access, now new users dont receive the High Contrast theme by default. But existing users still have the High Contrast theme on logon.
Group Policy controls the theme settings but it doesnt seem to have any affect.
Is the High Contrast theme stored in their profile somewhere? NTUSER.DAT ? We have well over 300 users, so it is a chore to do it manually. Id like to find the registry setting that is adding this. It seems odd that only two of the three servers are doing
this. Ive compared registry settings, even imported/exported HKU/.DEFAULT but it doesnt seem to have any affect.

Hi,
Based on my knowledge, the theme does not store in NTUSER.DAT. Please let us know if you use the Microsoft remote desktop client or third party remote desktop clients.
If you third-party ones, I suggest contacting their support first.
In addition, please provide us screenshots for further research.
Thanks.

Error while running User Profile Import - Stopped-extension-dll-load

Hi guys,
I'm receiving below error message in event viewer while running user profile import for the first time with event ID 6166:
The management agent "MOSS-" failed on run profile "MOSS_EXPORT_". The run step stopped because a configured extension for this management agent could not be loaded.
User Action
Verify that the extension is located in the Extensions directory. If the extension is present, confirm that the version of the .NET framework that can run the extension is installed on the server and that a supportedRuntimes entry in the configuration
files specifies that version. The synchronization engine will not be able to load an extension that is built with a newer version of the .NET framework than the version of the .NET runtime it is hosting.
At the same time , in miisclient "stopped-extension-dll-load" message for MOSS_EXPORT,MOSS_FULLSYNC, MOSS_DELTASYNC. Can any help to let me understand what will be causing this issue?
Farm version: 14.0.6137.5000

Hi Sarath,
For this issue, I recommend verify the things below:
Check if the connection name of the Synchronization Connections created in User Profile Service Application has more than 55 characters. If yes, please rename the connection with less than or equal to 55 characters.
Check if the length of the full path to the dll called “Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles.ManagementAgent” is
greater than 160. If yes, then we can move the extension Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles.ManagementAgent.dll to the folder c:\windows\assembly\GAC_MSIL and then do an IISRESET.
If above cannot work, please check ULS log for more detailed error message.

User profile images not persisting after log off on Server 2012 R2 RDS Session Hosts

Hi,
We have a 2012 R2 remote desktop deployment, with two session collections, a gateway server, and connection broker.
We have set these session collections to use centralised user profile disks.
What I am having an issue with, is that when a user sets their profile image through the server they have logged on to (I have the desktop experience pack installed so they are able to do this), they can see the user tile has been set with that image in
settings and also on the start menu, but as soon as they log off the server and back on, their profile image has been reset to the default blank image.
I have checked all of my group policy options, and cannot find any settings that could be impacting this.
Does anyone have any ideas why these images are not persisting for users or admins?
Thanks, Eds

Please check that the user is not getting a temporary profile each time he logs in. Also, make sure that the RDP client is properly configured to display the Wallpaper: http://www.webapper.com/blog/index.php/2007/10/18/enabling-desktop-wallpaper-on-remote-desktop-terminal-services/

How to have posted images display as sRGB on wide-gamut monitors.

I understand an sRGB profile is necessary for posting images but I need help on how to do that with Photoshop CS2 and my new wide-gamut monitor (HP LP2475w with Spider3Express calibration). Before doing a "save for web" and posting, I "convert to profile" to either "sRGB IEEE61966-2.1" or "sRGB with hardware configuration derived from calibration" (it makes no difference which), but I see then a significant color shift in the posted images when I view them through Firefox 3.6 (with operating color management software -verified on other posted images) and the same color shift with IE6 (which has NO color management software). So, Firefox is NOT RECOGNIZING my posted images with the sRGB profiles that I thought I was embedding in them in Photoshop. So my question boils down to: WHAT EXACTLY DO I HAVE TO DO IN PHOTOSHOP SO FIREFOX WILL RECOGNIZE THE POSTED IMAGES AS sRGB and display them 'correctly' on wide-gamut monitors??
Thank you very much.
-Jeff

ISSUE RESOLVED. Photoshop CS2 was not embedding an sRGB profile in the images I was posting. I needed to check the "ICC Profile" checkbox in "save for web" to make that actually happen (after I did "convert to profile" sRGB).
I also have switched to "Full Color Management" Value 1 (hidden) in Firefox 3.6 so that Firefox now assumes any untagged image is sRGB standard and then converts those, and all other images which ARE tagged, to my calibrated monitor profile. This definitely looks to me like the way to operate with a wide-gamut monitor although I understand it is still recommended to always tag images for posting as sRGB and not embed any other profile for color consistency over color accuracy. At least if there are some out there with wider-gamut tags, I should get some benefit.
Have I got it right ?
Thanks,
Jeff

Migrating Novell User Profiles

We are looking into the feasibility of using Mirage to do upgrades and migrations. One snag we have hit is that we currently utilize a Novell login, which creates a dynamic local user profile and USMT cannot migrate the user's profile to a new image on an AD domain joined system. Has anyone accomplished anything similar with Mirage?

Extending user details: Label in user Profile

Hello,
I have followed the document "How to Extend User Details" to add custom properties to user details. However, although it is possible to add labels to the user details iView (which you can access from KM), it does not seem possible to add labels for these properties on the User Profile (which you access through Personalize->User Profile).
I have checked <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/thread?forumID=42&threadID=129068&messageID=1443674">this</a> post, and the answer refers to the User Details iView, not the User Profile maintenance.
Regards,
Martin

Hello Anja,
This is a nice surprise (I remember you from your visit here to SA Breweries).
The labels display fine in the User Details iView, but in Personalise -> User Profile, only the field names show up, the way they have been defined, e.g. expertarea, as opposed to "Expert Area", just as in the screenshots in the How-To Guide. The entries save without a problem.
In other words, the field labels show up just as you defined them in UM Configuration, but you have no ability to change them to proper descriptive texts (as you would with KM property labels).
Regards,
Martin

Windows 8.1 Update 1 (Spring update KB2919355) - User Profile Service failed the sign-in

After installing Windows 8.1 Update 1 (Spring update KB2919355), our enterprise Windows 8.1 image began getting User Profile Service failed the sign-in. Uninstalling the update fixes the issue. The update somehow modifies the default user
profile causing write access issues which is evident in the event viewer.
Things I tried:
1) Re-applying parent permissions to Default profile folder
2) Disable CopyProfile before sysprep
3) Creating a new image with Windows 8.1 Update 1 ISO from Microsoft
None of them seem to work. I believe update 2919355 will be needed to continue getting future Windows 8.1 update. I might try looking at the specific files that the User Profile Service is complaining about but it seems to be random.
Anyone else experience this?

"Place your rig specifics into your signature like I have, makes it 100x easier to understand!"
I should have included this. It does it on all of our machine builds (we have a few) including VMs.
"try this http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2919355
if
a fresh manual install does not work use
the tools here"
Did all of this already at the request of MS and also ran a trace utility they sent me and submitted the results. The Trace revealed nothing remarkable to the analysts that gave any indication of what is causing this.
MS has acknowledged that there is a problem and for me it has to be an enterprise fix, not an individual run around to every computer. I have tried removing everything non-Microsoft and will try removing APP-V 5. If it works I will let them know, but
we can't operate the enterprise without APP-V so this wouldn't be a solution. The trouble is that it is so random that we thought we had it fixed by removing AV and were going to start looking in that direction and it turned out that if you just kept hammering
it with the logins that it would still manifest, as it has done with everything I have tried so far.

Windows 2008 R2 File Server - user profiles appear underdirectory C:\user

I've a windows 2008 r2 file server and few day ago I've noticed that under directory c:\users some user profiles have been created.
These users don't have rdp access to this server and don't use any ts application.
Is this a problem or a normal behavior?

Hello,
IIRC this is normal behavior as they do a connect to the server to access the shared folders.

User missing from all site collections but present in User Profile (Central Admin)

I have a user who does not show up in "People and Groups" (or if I search for this user) in any of the site collections but does show up when I look up his user profile on Central Admin. I've tried to add this user to the site collection using
the following command, but I get an error: " The specified user domain\accountname could not be found."
Get-SPWeb 'http://site' | New-SPUser -UserAlias 'domain\accountname'
Idk if this is related, but on this user's profile, "Personal Site" field shows up as "SPSSITEERROR".
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
I recommend to check if the user exists in Active Directory firstly.
If yes, then the error will occur. And for the user profile of the user, it may due to the user profiles have not been synced with Active Directory yet.
That "Personal Site" field shows up as "SPSSITEERROR" means that the MySite of that user has not been created successfully.
I recommend to run User Profile Synchronization timer job and then check the results.
Thanks,
Victoria

User profile and home page changed and Firefox hijacked by IE

I use Firefox with XP os with Kaspersky os. When I turned on computer it went through changing user profile.
Home page is changed to MSN-IE becomes the browser and all my files are gone. Computer hijacked. This is the second computer this has happened to.

User profiles in version CSS 7.50

I need to set up a profile that will allow our monitoring group to place rules and services on an Active or Suspend status.
All that I have read, points to a dir-access with customized priviliges based on mask or super-user.
What will be the "code" under the dir-access profile?
I have tried pretty much all combinations with no luck.The profile is either "privileged or not"
Any ideas..?
thanks

The CSS contains a default-profile that resides in the scripts directory on the Internal Disk Module (IDM). This file contains settings that are user-specific; that is, they apply uniquely to each user when the user logs in. For more information on User profiles and how to configure user profiles have a look at the following URL.

OSD - MDT 2013 - USMT Scan/LoadState Runs Successfully but user profiles are not restored.

I have this odd issue that I can't seem to figure out. I have an MDT Task Sequence that I created runs scanstate and loadstate without any issues using hard link. Unfortunately, the user profiles are not loaded/restored after loadstate runs. I can go to
the StateStore folder and manually run the loadstate again or use the Windows Easy transfer to restore the users, but I want this to occur when loadstate runs.
Here is the loadstate log:

I've got this to work although I haven't figured out the root cause.
My initial OSDMigrateAdditionalCaptureOptions were: /Hardlink /nocompress /uel:30 /config:%_SMSTSMDataPath%\Packages\%_OSDMigrateUsmtPackageID%\%Processor_Architecture%\config.xml"
My OSDMigrateRestoreCaptureOptions were: /Hardlink /nocompress /ue:*\* /ui:domain.local\*
Since the restore was failing, I removed the domain name from the ui switch which magically caused the restore process to load the user profiles to the computer.
My final OSDMigrateRestoreCapptureOptions which worked: /Hardlink /nocompress /ue:%computername%.
Just to note /hardlink commands are not necessary when you are using MDT task sequence, but I put it in anyway and it seems ensure that I get consistent results.

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.
