Hello. I have XP machines with roaming profiles on a domain. Due to a PDC SID problem, I had to reinstall the server OS, backup the user’s profile located on the workstations at c:\Application Data, remove the original profile, log the user on then off again, then restore the profile from the backup to the new local profile folder that was created. All is well, except the user is unable to add programs to the “open with” box when using the browse button. They will click Browse then choose a program, but the program they just chose will not on the list of available programs. I thought it would be a permissions problem, but it happens even if the user is added as a member of administrators. It also happens if I set the GPO for the user with default settings (all rules are set at “not configured”). This also happens when a new program is installed? even if the program was installed as the user. If I log onto the workstation as administrator it works fine. Any help appreciated. Thank you.
