FYI ... You can redirect Windows 2000 to your old profile by editing the registry. Open the Registry Editor and then open the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList.
Under this branch, locate the key that contains your profile settings. The easiest way to identify the correct key is to check the value of
ProfileImagePath in the key and locate the one pointing to your current profile directory. Then, edit the value of ProfileImagePath to point to the
old profile path. Log off and log back on; this should restore your original profile.
