    Posted: 12 Jan 2017 at 4:34am
Hello,
I am using ForensiT User Profile Wizard v3.12.1225 to test local to domain user migration and on the first PC I tried it on I go through the process of migrating the user, it says it completed the migration.
When it restarts and I sign in using my domain credentials it logs in  but the background is black with the taskbar flashing intermittently, it doesn't allow me to access task manager or the start menu, it's totally unresponsive but it will let me hit ctrl + alt + del to sign out.
I was able to migrate the profile back to a local account which works without problem.

This is the log I get (private info redacted)

Finding Domain Controller for domain DOMAIN... Done.

I have experienced this on all Windows 10 Pro migrations I have tried, have not found a solution yet.

I had the same experience. For me it was necessary to have the account be a member of the local users group (BUILTIN\Users) when in the new domain. I had to tweak a group policy that was setting this as a restricted group. After restarting I had a normal desktop. Normally this isn't an issue as Domain Users is a member by default, but the domain I'm migrating to is delegated at a lower level and we don't allow everyone access to our workstations.

Hello,
Same problem for me, all Windows 10 pro encounter this issue.
I send an email to support to point out the situation months ago but never get a reply :/

The black screen after sign-in indicates that the user does not have sufficient access to the registry. The main cause of this issue is addressed in build 3.12.1229

If you continue to have a problem, please contact support@ForensiT.com

Hi there, we've got a PC showing the exact same results but... for the life of me, I cannot find this 1229 build.

I've even used the Search tool and only had 1 result show.
Any help would be appreciated.

The current version of User Profile Wizard on our downloads page is build 1229.

Odd, I could have sworn when I Downloaded it yesterday it said 1225, my apologies & thankyou for the prompt reply.


Looks like this has not resolved the issue for me;
Any other ideas?

I was able to get this to work.. a round about way, but it worked.

We restored the profiles data (ran ProfWiz again and went from the broken domain profile back to the local profile)
Then because the PC was now on the domain, ran ProfWiz as the domain administrator and this caused it to work.

So it still looks like there may be a permissions bug / issue?
