HKEY_CURRENT_USER and NTUSER.DAT

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Hello Everyone. Hope someone can chat about somethings i am trying to do
using registry keys and ntuser.dat file.

first issuse:

i need to apply restrictions through GPO to a specific local user in windows
xp. I am doing the following:

1. Changes to local GPO using gpedit.msc;
2. Saving Hkey_current_user registry to NTuser.dat file;
3. deploy the dat file to user profile i want the restrictions.

'til here everything is fine. I have the desired result.

This works fine in windows XP but In a specific computer is not working
properly, not all the restrictions are applied to the user only a few. So
when i look to the hkey_current_ser registry, all the settings are ok, so all
the restrictions should be applied not just some of them.

Is there a way to discover why this is happening?

Second Issue:

The steps above are applied to windows vista? I tried but it failed.
The NTUSER.DAT file in windows vista has the same functions that in windows
XP?

I writing this here because NTUSER files are registry. HOpe someone can help
me.

Thanks in advance.
