Restoring user data

You restore user data from a user package to a computer by setting up and running a Move the User: Restore task.

When you set up a Move the User: Restore task, you must specify the following:

The name of the computer, or group of computers, to which you want to restore user settings.

The location and file name of the user packages that contain the settings to restore.

How you specify this depends on whether you are restoring to a computer group or to a single computer, and whether the user packages are stored on the Console server or on the client computers.

Whether or not you want to overwrite any existing files on the target computers.

Note: When you restore user settings to the same computers from which they were collected, the user account passwords are deleted.
