Install PRF file on new Windows Profile (ONCE)



Hey all, hopefully this is a simple one for you.

I have a PRF file that works great when I run it from the command line.
We are running an Acitve Directory Domain, and using Group Policies.
I have found several ways of running the importprf command on a user
login, but it fires every time they log in (not just for a new windows
profile, or one time per user per machine).

I have read on using the Registry and removing the First-Run value, and
setting the ImportPRF value to a share where the PRF resides, but
again, I cant figure a way in Active Directory to set this Registry
value one time.

This seems like it would be simple to do on each machine for each user,
but I'd like to encorporate this with AD and Group Policies so that it
only fires when the user first logs onto a machine (new windows
profile), or mabye just one time for that user on a machine (even if
the Windows profile exists).


Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Sean
