The following restrictions apply to desktop settings:
•
Active Desktop: To migrate the Active Desktop including the wallpaper, you must
select the wallpaper setting as well.
•
Icons:1) The vertical and horizontal spacings between desktop icons do not migrate
precisely. 2) Only the icons that are in the current user's desktop directory are
migrated.
•
Shell: To migrate the Windows Explorer shell settings, you must migrate both your
shell desktop settings and your Microsoft Internet Explorer application settings. If the
target computer uses Windows 2000 Professional, Windows XP, Windows Vista, or
Windows 7, the folder view settings (such as large icons, tiles, and details) do not
migrate.
•
Sound: UMA migrates the active sound scheme from the source computer to the target
computer. The sound scheme is set in the Sounds and Multimedia Properties window of
the Windows control panel. If the sound scheme in the source computer is set to No
Sounds, sounds will not be migrated to the target computer. If the source computer
uses custom sounds, you must migrate the sound files along with the sound scheme.
•
Wallpaper: If the wallpaper that you want to migrate is a JPEG file, you also must
capture the Active desktop setting. It is not necessary to capture the Active desktop
setting when you migrate wallpaper that is a BMP file.
