Profile Migrator 2.3: Only one password to memorize

A while ago I explained how user passwords in common applications like Outlook are stored and encrypted. Unfortunately the tie of encryption and user accounts made a migration impossible for a number of migration scenarios.

With the release of version 2.2 of Profile Migrator not only covers all current migration scenarios, it also is the only application that migrates Microsoft Office and Internet Explorer between versions. One of the most important settings that makes the migration seamless for the user are stored passwords. Everybody knows the hassle of having to retype passwords. Many times the user doesn't remember them, doesn't know where to find them again or didn't even know that he needed one, because it was entered by his system administrator.

Migrating your terminal server platform without users noticing it

I was recently supporting a customer who had a migration project planned. The customers were using Citrix Presentation Server 4.5 on Windows Server 2003 x86 and the task was to replace this with XenApp 6 on Windows Server 2008 R2. What made this interesting besides the change of profile versions and the system architecture was the fact that the users should not notice any downtime or lose any of their settings. Especially the Outlook settings and accounts and the Internet Explorer passwords were mission critical.
