Changes in the Windows Vista and Longhorn Profiles
Saturday, 02 December 2006 by Michel Roth
This paper from Microsoft details on all changes in user profiles, folder redirection and related policies in Windows Vista. Items such as changes in Application Data, Super Mandatory Profiles and "built-in UPH Clean". All the changes in Windows Vista in the user profiles, folder redirection and related policies also apply to Windows Server Longhorn. I consider this article a must read.

This guide shows IT administrators ways to implement Folder Redirection and roaming user profiles for Windows Vista, using their existing infrastructure. The guide includes a technical overview of the improvements to Folder Redirection and user profiles in Windows Vista. Provided scenarios show how to create new and manage existing Folder Redirection policies; prepare an existing infrastructure to use Windows Vista roaming, mandatory, and super mandatory user profiles; and allow users to share their roaming data between Windows Vista and Windows XP.
