Very Well explained, it's very hard to find a nice complete overview tutorial of how the USMT works within MDT. This is the best one on Youtube so far, Thank you for this

Thanks man amazing work, you did clear lots of questions for me

[jessebloomer]

Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. Do you know of any way to capture a user state to a Migration Point without having to boot into Windows? IE: can this be done while the computer is booted into windows PE mode? I have about 100 laptops that I'll be upgrading with SSD's this summer, and it would be ideal to just be able to network boot them, capture the user state, install the SSD, re-image the laptop, and then redeploy the user state.

How can migrate user profiles using In-place not Site-by-site? After I input the source name, the destination name can not be search as same with source name. thanks

[markcopper]

This is an excellent video. Thank you so much!

Thanks for this series of how to's. I have a question with regards sccm roles when using USMT. Is there a default security role that will allow tier 2 support to handle the computer associations? As there seems to be a lot of over head in that part of the process. Cheers

Good video Justin thank you. I have a question. Which app are you using to make the red boxes and red arrows? Thank You Also, my biggest problem with Refresh/Replace image is how to migrate the apps over without using Active Directory Groups or MDT UDI. Any ideas?

[bobble]

Thank you for the awesome detailed instructions. This help me understand the TS a lot more. Is there a particular setting for Capture the profile reimage the computer and restore the profile in all one sequence? I tried to use the Migration Point method it did the capture but didn't quite do the restore. Still experimenting with it. Any tips would be great! Thanks again.

I have a question... If I have to replace 10 computers at the same time, how´s that works? Is there any step that I can select what USM to restore? Do I need to create a new task sequence for each migration? Great video BTW! Thanks

[pierreexantus]

Great work! This is very hepful. Did I miss the steps on excluding entries?

[yamahossainkhil]

What an amazing video. Huge thanks for this great video.
I have question. For my scenario, I am upgrading the hard drive to SSD (also upgrade the OS to win10 from 7/8). I can definitely can use this method but how i can differ the machines if I am applying this to 50 machines. How the deployed application/task sequence will restore the state store: based on the logged in user or something else? In your great example it is 1 machine but what if i have 50+ machines. In other word, How i can build a association/relationship between the machines so it restore the specific data to the specific machine?

Again, thank you for this amazing video.
