In their own words
ForensiT User Profile Wizard
ForensiT User Profile Wizard configures an existing Windows user profile for a new account while keeping its data and settings in place. The in-place migration does not move, copy, or delete data, and the tool supports local, Active Directory, hybrid, and Entra ID/Azure AD accounts. It also supports Active Directory and Samba domains, including moving a computer from a domain back to a workgroup. The free Personal Edition is GUI-only. Professional Edition costs $149.95, paid once, billed per technician, and provides a perpetual license for GUI migrations one computer at a time, without automation or scripting. Corporate Edition costs $3.50 a year, billed per seat for a one-year subscription, with a 50-license minimum; it adds automated migrations, scripting, command-line use, automatic script generation, and secure execution of additional code. Professional and Corporate push migrations require File and Printer Sharing and discoverable machines. A Deployment Kit can create a single executable for rollout through Group Policy or desktop management software. The tool does not migrate profiles between computers. Windows downloads are listed for Windows 10, Windows 11, Windows 7, and Windows XP.
