Hello,
We use full profile container. We want to migrate profile VHDX in a new domain user.

We set new ACL on File VHDX, inside VHDX, inside Ntuser.dat, change with new SID but not works :

Error fslogix :
[ERROR:00000002] QueryBinaryValue (The specified file can not be found.)

Someone has already done this migration?
Maybe files/folders to removed?

Thanks

    It can work,
    you will need to update
    \Profile\Appdata\Local\fslogix\ProfileData.reg Delete the line with "Sid" and the line with "Guid" Replace the SID in the first line with the new SID. as **Thomas Brandlehner
    **but the new thing that you will need also under
    SecuredProfileRegData copy or edit the same file,
    but on that folder you will need to take owner and set acl for you and the new user.

    Did this once.
    The Environment was small so the Helpdesk did this as manual task.
    No idea if this is the correct way but it worked for us.

    Find the users SID in the new Domain, you will need it later
    import-module ActiveDirectory
    get-aduser testuser

    Logoff the user
    Rename the profile Folder as Administrator - replace old SID with new SID
    Mount the VHDX as Administrator
    Edit \Profile\Appdata\Local\fslogix\ProfileData.reg
    Delete the line with "Sid" and the line with "Guid"
    Replace the SID in the first line with the new SID.
    Unmount the VHDX
    Logon user with new Domain.
