What files do you copy over when starting users off with a newly imaged PC?

by knowledgebased . Updated 17 years, 8 months ago

We frequently upgrade users to newer PCs and the goal is to make the transition as smooth as possible. I normally copy over the desktop, favorites and my documents folders from c:\documents and settings\loginID\. In addition I copy the .NK2 file from Outlook’s Application Data folder so they’ll have all the addresses they sent to previously appear in the drop down box as they begin to type the names. What other files you do you copy to a new users (or your own) PC when starting them with a clean OS.

Does anyone know of a simple registry key or file that contains the network drives a user has mapped?
