Programatically Change Profile from Roaming to Local
Does anyone know how, on a local machine, to change the currently logged in users profile from ROAMING to LOCAL? It's done manually by going into the My Comptuer properties, User Profiles, then clicking CHANGE TYPE.

To my understanding 'currently logged-on' userprofiles can't be changed, it must be done by an admin-account.
Here's where the settings are made:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList\****\UserPreference
0x0 sets it local
0x1 sets it to roaming
Maybe this will get you started.
