Hello -




Has anyone had success either storing their settings/preferences on a network drive or at least syncing settings/preferences across multiple machines on a LAN? I find it so annoying to have to recreate all of my preferences and open my outlook data files whenever I log onto a new machine.
 
You can create a PRF to to set up the profiles and add pst files to it. You can export settings from the registry. I don't recommend exporting the profile from the registry as it may reference files in specific locations and addins that may not exist on each computer.

See http://www.outlook-tips.net/howto/prf.htm for infomation about creating a prf.

If you use an active directory network, you could use roaming profiles but this works best if the systems are all identical save for the computer name.
