xp user profile

ONE OF MY USERS LOST HIS PROFILE AND COULD NOT ACCESS DOCUMENTS AND MAIL. XP WAS ASSIGNING A TEMP PROFILE FOR HIM.

I LOGGED IN AS ADMIN AND WAS ABLE TO GET MY PROFILE AND TRIED TO COPY BACK HIS PROFILE (SYSTEM>ADVANCE) BUT HIS PROFILE HAD “BACKUP” AS ITS STATUS AND WHEN YOU COPY TO NEW NETWORK LOCATION THERE IS A MESSAGE WARNING ABOUT SECURITY REGISTRY CORRUPTED FOR THAT PROFILE. ANY HELP HERE?

I HAD TO MANUALLY CUT HIS ACCOUNT IN DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS, POST IT OUTSIDE, LOG IN AS HIM, XPCREATES NEW PROFILE FOR HIM, THE RVERSE TO MY ACCOUNT AND COPY BACK THE POSTED PROFILE FOLDER THEN IMPORT BACK HIS MAIL AND ADDRESSBOOK, OF COURSE I HAD TO RECONFIGURE MAIL ACCOUNT SETTINGS IN OUTLOOK 6.

IS THERE A BETTER WAY?
