For some unknown reason, one of my user PC ( network) creates two user profiles( multiple desktop as if we were to have roaming profile). I want to be able to open same desktop settings no matter who logs on. How can I fix this problem?

Thank you

Delete all profiles. Delete everything from Default User. Logon as a new user with admin access and customize the desktop and all settings the way you want it. From user profile (system in control pannel)select the user profile you modified and select copy to, copy to Default User. Now all users of that PC will have the same Profile.

Concur with the other answer, IF you are interested in everyone *starting* with the same desktop settings.

If you want to *force* everyone to *keep* the same desktop settings, it's a bit more complicated.

You can create policies using the Policy Editor. Then, you copy the policies you want to use to the Export folder of the PDC.

Good fortune,
Don
