You're refering to User Profiles - Create and Move During Windows 7 Installation ? "During installation" it says
You're refering to User Profiles - Create and Move During Windows 7 Installation ? "During installation" it says
The tutorial name is misleading, I admit that.
However, at the very beginning of the tut is an Information box where you can see the highlighted text:
The post #22 mentioned then explains how it's done on an existing installation:InformationThere are several methods to move user profiles to another disk or partition after you have installed Windows 7. The easiest way is to use Audit Mode and System Preparation Tool, both built-in Windows 7 features, to permanently move the location of the folder Users.
This tutorial shows how to relocate both Users and ProgramData to another disk or partition when doing a new, fresh and clean install of Windows 7. If you have already installed Seven, and you'd like to move those folders away from their default location in C: drive, please read first post number 22 in this thread. Follow the steps told in that post, and continue then from beginning of the page 4 in this tutorial.

Guys .. as I am not installing windows, only wish to move profiles back to C:\ ... should I use the script just to move profiles, as you describe above "The post #22 mentioned then explains how it's done on an existing installation:". or is do I just move them (revert) as per the original tutorial User Profile - Change Default Location
No Sargan. I want to apologize, this thread of yours has gone a bit off topic or at least expanded the topic beyong your original issue.
You need to revert the move of your profile folder(s) using the same method you originally used. You will create a total mess if you now use the Sysprep method to revert something you did with the registry editing method.
Thanks .. I'll go do that .... I'll admit did seem to be getting quite involved.
