Developer's Description

Migrate Windows workstations to a new domain without losing user profile data and settings.

User Profile Wizard will migrate your current user profile to your new domain account so that you can keep all your existing data and settings. As the Windows operating system has developed, User Profiles have become ever more important and are now an integral part of the way that Windows organizes data. In some circumstances however, this tying of data to a single user account can be a problem. Normally, when you join your machine to your new domain Windows will create a new profile for you and you lose all your data and settings--your "My Documents", "My Pictures" and "My Music" files and all the other information that makes your computer personal to you, like your desktop wallpaper, Internet favorites and the lists of documents you've recently opened. User Profile Wizard is an easy-to-use migration tool that means this doesn't need to happen--you can share your original profile with your new domain logon.

Version 3.0 supports "push" migrations of remote machines.

Summary
I'm writing this review in case some poor soul has the same profile problem that I recently had. My Windows 10 PC main account profile developed a strange issue where everything would work fine until any program connected to the internet. I spent over a week of very late nights trying to fix it. I tried restoring my pc from archives as far back as three weeks before the problem appeared. Logically, restoring a disk image of my OS drive should have fixed it, but this wasn't a logical problem. I noticed the other profile on the PC didn't have the problem so figured there must have been some latent problem in my main profile. I tried the methods of copying a profile that I found on Google (which was to basically copy the files in the profile minus DAT files to a new folder) but none of my programs worked they way they did with my old profile, and I still had to remember years of setting things up the way I was used to (windows and each app). I made a "hail Mary pass" by downloading the free version of Forensit profile wizard. After 15 minutes my copied profile worked properly! I still had to set up my email, some default apps, re-activate Sonar, etc. but overall very painless. Thanks!
Worked great for me on wife's machine!Thank god

Pros
Worked like a charm on Win 7 desktop... Good thing too as it was wife's machine
Cons
No cons apparent, doing some desktop testing, everything except sidebar and Outlook password appears to have been transferred to the new domain account
Summary

Pros
It launched....thats about it.
Cons
I went step by step through the app, told it to move create new domain account, transfer settings and not delete the old account. Well when I executed this, it deleted the original profile, did not move any my docs over and worst of all there is absolutely no trace of the outlook .ost or pst file. I asked for a refund after trying this on one machine and received the following reply. "Hi Chris, User Profile Wizard has been used to migrate hundreds of thousands of machines over many years. The software has been tried and tested in some of the world's largest corporations and organizations, some of whom have individually migrated tens of thousands of workstations. We are extremely proud of the reliability and functionality of our software. If you have a problem, or are unclear on how to use User Profile Wizard, you should contact us." I received a nice F-U, you are an idiot email and screw your refund..... beware pf product. I found it easier to do everything manually after this.
Summary
A total waste of money. Stay away
works great
