I have got a laptop which is configured to have the user profile in a network drive. This is causing me a lot of headaches since the connectivity to my company is very slow. I want to relocate the profile of my user into a local directory. How do I do that?
Those are the settings at the moment:
C:\>set HOME
HOMEDRIVE=P:
HOMEPATH=\
HOMESHARE=\\SOMESERVER\_myuser$
The drive P is a network drive mapped to HOMESHARE.
I can't find where windows is setting those environment variables, not even in the registry.
The laptop is running Windows XP.
