Guest Mr. JYC Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 Hello, When a roaming profile is set up for a domain user, does the applications and the settings for those applications get set up in the profile? For instance, if someone was using Outlook or Outlook Express, would the application and the mail settings be stored in the profile? I know the application (Outlook or Outlook Express) has to be available on the workstation but would the user settings (mail settings) follow the user around? -- Thank you for your help! JYC

One concern, though about roaming profiles is the size of the profiles. The larger they get, the longer it takes to boot and the likelihood of profile corruption increases. You can exclude directories via Group Policy. -- Regards, Hank Arnold Microsoft MVP Windows Server - Directory Services
