If you know a user’s profile name,
so you can calculate the value of “c:\documents and settings\username\”, you can use reg load to
load the ntuser.dat, make edits to the key, and unload. Unloading is
important, or it will create a new profile for said user because their profile
will be in use. I have a script that does this (not for users, for something
else), it works well.

Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] logon
scripts
The 2nd script reads a value from HKCU\Software and writes it to
file
I need to read a value from it but I can only access it when the
current user is logged on.
I don't know how else to gain access to that key since i don't know the
user's sid, so i put it into a user logon script via GPO so i can read it when
the user logs on and that key is loaded.
should i run scripts sycncronously to get this key or is there a way to
read it without the user logged on?

We had this happen by accident for a short

as well as the desired logon script, which we tie to AD Sites. Both were
running, and if I remember right the drive mappings in the legacy script were
winning - which would mean that it was running after the script that was
triggered by group policy. I don't think there is any harm provided there
aren't conflicting drive mappings or other settings where script timing would
need to be verified and accounted for.

What happends if you have 2 different logon scripts for users-
one in the legacy location and one in a domain GPO?
are there any issues with doing things this way for a short time
period?
Both scripts do completley different things.
