When Each User First Logs On

What Is Not Migrated

The following items are not migrated:

• Persistent shares and users from Windows for Workgroups.
• Default domain and user ID from Windows for Workgroups or the LANMAN.INI file.
• Per-user profiles maintained by the WINLOGIN add-on product for Windows for Workgroups.
• Any changes that the user has made to his or her Accessories, Games, Main, and Startup groups in Windows 3.x. These groups are not migrated because their names match the names of 32-bit Windows NT groups.
• MS-DOS drive letters. If you have FAT partitions and HPFS or NTFS partitions on a computer that dual-boots MS-DOS and Windows NT, use Disk Administrator to assign drive letters to your non-FAT partitions. Begin with the first drive letter after the one that MS-DOS assigns to your last FAT partition. This ensures that the FAT partition drive letters are the same for both systems and that any migrated path names are valid.
• The options Auto Arrange, Minimize on Run, and Save Settings on Exit from the PROGMAN.INI file.
• Font information for character-mode command windows.
• The Language and Keyboard settings in the International applications.
• The default screen saver (SCRNSAVE.EXE) in the [BOOT] section of the SYSTEM.INI file. 16-bit screen savers are ill-behaved under Windows NT.

What Is Migrated

The following items are migrated the first time each new user logs in, if he selects to migrate the .INI files and the .GRP files. This per-user migration does not happen for the usernames Administrator, Guest, and System.

• The following sections and variables from the WIN.INI file:

  [Clock]

  [Colors]

  [Cursors]

  [DeskTop]

  [Extensions]

  [Intl]

  [Sounds]

  [Terminal]

  [TrueType]

  [Windows]
  Beep
  BorderWidth
  CursorBlinkRate
  DoubleClickSpeed
  KeyboardDelay
  KeyboardSpeed
  MouseSpeed
  MouseThreshold1
  MouseThreshold2
  ScreenSaveActive
  ScreenSaveTimeOut
  SwapMouseButtons

• The following sections and variables from the CONTROL.INI file:

  [Color Schemes]

  [Current]

  [Custom Colors]

  [Patterns]

  [Screen Saver.Marquee]

  [Screen Saver.Mystify]

  [Screen Saver.Stars]

• The [Settings] section from the WINFILE.INI file.
• All 16-bit Windows 3.x Program Manager group files listed in the PROGMAN.INI file. If a group name (contained in the group file, not the actual .GRP filename) matches the name of a 32-bit Windows NT Personal or Common group, then that 16-bit group will not be migrated (for example, Accessories, Games, Main, and Startup). Each group is migrated "as is", and the show state is set to Minimized.
• The Country setting in the international applications.
