      I just took some computers from no AD to AD. The USMT even grabbed their wall paper. The commands were:

      scanstate.exe c:\USMT /uel:30 /i:migapp.xml /i:migdocs.xml /localonly /ui:"sarah"
      loadstate.exe c:\USMT /i:miguser.xml /i:migapp.xml /MU:"sarah":"ad.domain.com\ssmith"
      

      You would be doing the reverse of that, but the /MU switch is the one that changes the account type. One that that I noticed is that it seemed to be scanning the entire hard drive looking for docs placed outside the user folders. Since it was going right back down to the same machine, I didn't need that, since it took extra time. If anyone knows what is needed to avoid that, please share.

        I've done this a time or two...

        • Unjoin computer from AD... Reboot
        • Log in as admin, create NEW user account with same username as AD username
        • Grant new user account full control on the C:\Users\username folder.
        • Reboot, and Login as new user. All their stuff should still be there.

        What about the SID in the profilelist reg key?

        That is what ForensiIT does in the background.

        Right, I know that. I was asking about when dafyre said he used to do it manually with the steps he outlined.

          I've have used that ProfileWiz before by ForensiT, works really well.
