User Profiles
A
User Profile
contains information about a user configuration. This
includes the profile components, such as desktop settings, screen colors,
and network connections. When a user logs on, the user profile is loaded
and the Windows environment is set accordingly.
The user profile data resides in the following directory:
•
<%SystemRoot%>\Profiles
on Windows NT
•
\Documents and Settings
on Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003
These directories contain all user profiles that are configured on the
system and backed up by Data Protector. If a system is configured for
multiple users, a separate user profile belongs to each defined user. For
example, the
All Users
and
Default User
profiles contain the profile
components common to all defined users and those assigned to a newly
created user.
Data Protector reads the location of the profiles from the following
Registry keys:
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\\
CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders
where information about common profile components resides.
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\\
CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
NOTE
If you back up
CONFIGURATION
and the whole Windows system partition
as a filesystem, the
Profiles
are backed up twice; as part of a filesystem
backup and as part of
CONFIGURATION
. To avoid this, exclude the profile
data (see above for location) from the filesystem backup.
