27, 2006. Guest Challenge 1 : When I tried to copy the user profile of one administrator user account (let's call it A) in Windows XP home edition to another user account (let's call it B) , the advice given on http://www.pcreview.co.uk/threads/copying-user-profile-from-one-user-account-to-another-user-account-on-the-same-conputer-3-chall.2415685/ the web is: Create a new user account (let's call it C). Then restart computer. Then log into C to effect the change. Then restart computer ( this may or may not be necessary , I don't remember). The log back into C to start the transfer from A to B . In account C, Right click "My Computer" --- > Properties ---- > Advanced --- > User Profiles --- > Settings . Highlight A , click "Copy To" and then specify the destination path failed to as C:\Documents and Settings\User Account Name. I am told this is all I have to do. If I do not follow the above procedure , I will find that "Copy To" is grayed out and I cannot do any copying. OK, this grayed out challenge is solved. But the next challenge is : When I click "Copy To" , I get the message , "failed to set security on the destination profile". The source of this challenge seems to be in account user A. failed to set So I go into account A , I right click the owner folder ( at C:\Documents and Settings\Owner ) ---- > Properties --- > Sharing --- > "Make the folder private" (needs to uncheck this). How this owner folder had that checkmark in the first place is probably when I set up user account A to stop others from having access to my computers when I am not around, I went to Start --- > Control Panel ---- > Switch to Category View --- > User Accounts" And when I created a password, Windows asked me "Do you want to make your files and folders private?" and I clicked "Yes, Make Private" OK, uncheck that box in owner folder properties and also delete the passwords used by account A and B and this second challenge is solved. No more "failed to set security on the destination profile" message. The next challenge is when A is being copied to B , I get messages such as "Windows cannot copy file C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Start Menu\Programs\Folder View\Visit Folder View Website.lnk to location C:\Documents and Settings\Surfing\Start Menu\Programs\Folder View\Visit Folder View Website.lnk. Possible causes of this error include network problems or insufficient security rights. If this problem persists, contact your network administrator. DETAIL - The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process. " I am pretty sure it has nothing to do with Folder View per se. Becuase I tried to find out if this error message is consistent by
