PROFILES

1) What is profile?
Ans: Windows maintains a group of settings for each individual user that logs into he system. This group setting is known as a user ‘profile’.

2) Where are the documents and settings for the roaming profile stored?
Ans: All the documents and environmental settings for the roaming user are stored locally on the system, and, when the user logs off, all changes to the locally stored profile are copied to the shared server folder. Therefore, the first time a roaming user logs on to a new system the logon process may take some time, depending on how large his profile folder is.

3) What is Roaming and Mandatory profile?
Ans: Roaming user profile: A user profile that is copied to a network server so that it can be downloaded each workstation where the user logon
Mandatory profile: A user profile set up by the server administrator that is loaded from the server to the client each times the user logon. Changes that user makes to the profile are not saved
