Setting up user accounts on new computer
I just purchased a couple of new computers to use in my office. Each computer needs to have 7 user accounts all with the same initial settings and applications available to it.
Do I need to manually setup each user account or can I create 1 and then copy it to the other 6 to save time.
I am not interested in using roaming profiles and after doing some searching it looks like this isn't overly easy in Windows 7.
In the old days, I would do the following:
1) Customize one user with all the settings and application installed as required.
2) Create all necessary users and logon once to create user files
3) Create a temporary user account with administrator access
4) Logon to temporary user account and then manually copy all the user files from the configured user account to all of the other user accounts.
5) Logon as any user and remove the temporary user
Will this procedure still work?
Thanks for the help!
