Hello!
First, thank you for making this great tool! I stumbled upon this after searching for a solution to Windows 7's loss of the "Copy To" feature. Today, I just tried DefPro 1.11 on Win10 2016 LTSB and found a few settings didn't carry over from the Default User to the new one: In the Modern "Settings" App… System > Default Apps > Photo Viewer Devices > AutoPlay Start > Show Recently Added Apps Privacy > Background Apps From Start (button) > Search (app) > My Device History Classic "Control Panel" App… File Explorer Options > View (tab) > Show Libraries Mouse > Pointers (tab) > Scheme Security & Maintenance > Change Security & Maintenance Settings > "Security Messages," and also "Maintenance Messages" System > Advanced (tab) > Performance > Visual Effects (tab) System > Advanced (tab) > Remote > Remote Assistance Troubleshooting > Change Settings I did do a quick search on this forum, but didn't see anything similar. So, should I assume the above settings are not stored in the Default User's profile? Or, should I be using a different product? Thanks in advance for your help! |

Default apps stick with my default profile. I changed the web browser from Edge to IE and I changed .pdf files to be read by Adobe Reader. I believe all other settings in the Modern "Settings" App will save as well.
As far as control Panel settings go, I have not tested them myself. Since the Default app change didn't stick for you, I imagine you might have missed a step in the process of using defprof and/or testing it. It happens to the best of us. Edited by redrice - 16 Sep 2016 at 9:05am |

Thanks for your reply redrice. I did discover a missing step; once your desired profile has been fully configured, you must perform a reboot before running DefProf as the Administrator. That brought over most of the items I listed except for:
AutoPlay Mouse Pointer Security & Maintenance Settings Those don't appear to be stored within the standard user profile structure. I found alternate workarounds for AutoPlay and the Mouse Pointer. But the last one escapes me. Any other suggestions are appreciated. |
