technick Posted January 10, 2013 Report post Posted January 10, 2013 We have everything set up (so far it all works) except when we try to restore. It is set up currently to hardlink to the C drive. Trying to restore the files, the file structure is: C:/UserState/USMT/ and then a few files, a folder with user profiles, and a file called "catalog" which must be ran as admin. However, when we run it, it starts Windows Easy File Transfer, and asks for the location of WEFT on the old machine... At this point is there something wrong, or do we have to manually restore the files to user profiles from the USMT folder?

Peter van der Woude Posted January 10, 2013 Report post Posted January 10, 2013 How are you restoring? From a task sequence (I hope)? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
technick Posted February 14, 2013 Report post Posted February 14, 2013 We were trying to do the restore after the task sequence completed... it wasn't restoring as part of the ts. But we got it working now. Thank you for your reply. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
technick Posted February 14, 2013 Report post Posted February 14, 2013 Now, an issue we are seeing is that the restore is duplicating items. If icons, for example, are part of the image, and were backed up, they will be restored, creating duplicates. I have a wnb.xml file to exclude empty links on the desktop, but it doesn't work for this case. Also, the "libraries" in Win7 are duplicated as well...

technick Posted February 28, 2013 Report post Posted February 28, 2013 How can I edit the MigUser.xml to 'ignore' existing files. Ie if "My Computer" icon is on the Public Desktop, don't restore that icon. Thus, avoiding duplicate icons... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
