Windows App Defaults Changed After Migration

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   We have successfully used User Profile Wizard to move domain accounts to Azure AD, however we're seeing app defaults for things like PDFs and TIFFs reverting back to the MS default of Edge and Photo Viewer in the new profile even though everything else seemed to carry over.  Also, the Mitel softphone app loses its saved password.  

Mitel app might be explainable in that the ACLs change on the profile invalidating the saved encrypted password, however I'm not understanding why the MS app defaults are reverting?

	Hi, Windows saves file association settings encrypted so that malware cannot hijack the opening of files. User Profile Wizard cannot migrate encrypted data, so when the new user account signs-in, file associations revert to Windows defaults. Many thanks, Support.
