Profile Wizard

The Profile Wizard helps you to create and distribute a default user profile, including standard locations for files and templates. You can preset options so that users don’t have to customize their settings. You can also change default values to match your organization’s needs or to ensure that users have access to shared templates. When you deploy a standard user profile, all of your users start with the same Office configuration.

When you save an Office user profile, you create an Office profile settings (OPS) file. You can include your OPS file in a Windows installer transform (MST file), and the settings are distributed when Office 2000 is deployed. You can also use the Profile Wizard to help back up and restore user-defined settings from one computer to another.

Installing the Profile Wizard

The Profile Wizard is automatically installed on your computer when you install the Office Resource Kit. To locate the tool, click the Start button, point to Programs, point to Microsoft Office Tools, point to Microsoft Office 2000 Resource Kit Tools, and then click Profile Wizard.
