Hi,
We have moved a few test users over using the ProfWiz process and a user is saying that cached passwords in Chrome and passwords for connections in an Excel workbook no longer work.

Is this expected?   Should cached credentials be still available?

Thanks

Hi, 

Unfortunately, as mentioned in the  https://www.forensit.com/Downloads/User%20Profile%20Wizard%20Corporate%20User%20Guide.pdf" rel="nofollow - User Guide  “User Profile Wizard cannot migrate encrypted data. This includes encrypted files, but also Internet and Outlook passwords which will need to be re-entered after the migration.” (What isn’t migrated? Page 104.)

One option would be to export the passwords and reimport into Chrome after the migration.

Thank you for the confirmation.
The end result would be the same for a user if we had to rebuild their machine via the OOBE process to join them to a different domain anyway.

:-)
