What does Microsoft recommend for local user profile migration? For example, when joining device to AAD a brand new local user profile is created leaving everything from my workgroup or domain local user profile behind. Will Windows 11 offer any sort of profile migration tool?

We have found ForensIT's ProfileWiz very helpful in migrating local profiles to another domain, whether AD or AAD.

    Hey Russel, I found that that actually attempts to "migrate" the local user profile instead of copying the data - is that still the case? I wrote a script to do everything; so the end user truly doesn't know they have a new computer, but I'm wondering what else is out there. Thanks for the input.
