Add a Local User

If you want to migrate a local user profile that does not exist under the All local user profiles on source machine tree item in the Users Selection tab, you must add the user.

Note: You must have full administrator privileges to migrate multiple users in Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7.

To add a local user

1. Click Settings, Users from the left pane.

   The Selection tab appears.

2. Expand the All local user profiles on source machine tree item.

   All the local user profiles in the computer (which runs the DMM Template Editor) are listed.

3. Click Add User.

   A New User item is added under local profiles tree item.

4. Edit the user name and press the Enter key.

   A new local user is created and enabled for migration.

5. (Optional) Click Passwords.

   The Password options for new accounts dialog appears letting you specify how you want the passwords to be defined for the new accounts that CA DMM creates.

Important! If you migrate user profiles associated with local accounts, you must ensure the user logged in at the time of migration has administrative privileges locally. Having a user with administrative privileges logged in during migration, allows the creation of accounts on the local system.
