Hi
We have about 700 users than I want to rename the profile path to a single mandatory profiles path, they are all setup as individual roaming profiles, is there a batch file to do this rather than clicking on each user name and changing it.

You could use the net user command with the /profilepath option - perhaps in conjunction with a for command - after using net user to extract all user names (to supply to for command).
Or the resource kit tool - addusers. Use its reporting feature to extract all user details to csv file. Multiple edit/fill in excel on file to replace all the profile paths, then use update feature.
Just some ideas.
