Leaving/rejoining domain on XP pro - profile affected?

[Guest Wowbagger]

I have an XP Pro machine which has lost trust with the DC which means I have

to leave the domain and rejoin. Will this affect the profile

(username.domain) on the XP Pro machine? Will I have to recreate that

profile and move all of the data into the new instance?

Yes, you'll probably get a new profile. However, you can

manually modify the registry to point at the old folder. It's

kept here:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
