Unexpected files in a user's store - being restored in the wrong location
Closed this issue · 1 comments
Describe the bug
The creation of a user profile store includes files that do not belong to them.
In my case, this was files from a logical drive M:, which had been used on several different computers.
There are files on that M: drive that belong to users on a computer that is NOT the source, and those users do not exist on the source PC where I am building the store.
When this incorrect store is used to create the profile on a new PC, files are placed on the destination, but do not belong the user being migrated. Additionally, they are not restored in the correct location, instead they are stored at the root of the C: drive.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Create a store on the source PC. Ensure that the source PC has access to files that belong to users that do not exist on the source PC. A way to do this is have an external disk mounted that has files belonging to users on another computer. (Or does SuperGrate recognise it as external and exclude it? In my case the disk was physically installed in the source, but had been used in other PCs)
- Restore the store on the destination PC.
- Browse the destination C: drive and note that there are folders and files now present that did not belong to the migrated user on the source PC. Additionally, on the source PC they were on the external drive, not the C: root.
Expected behavior
No rogue folders on the destination C: drive that have come from the source.
Screenshots

Logs
I can provide if required.
Please paste logs here in a code block.
IMPORTANT
To retrieve the logs, click "File", the select "Save log..." Copy the contents of the log file and paste it here.
Refrain from copying and pasting the log from the console since it does not output verbose information.
**Additional context**
Source Win10 Pro destination Win 11 Pro, both 64 bit.
I have tried this with an M: drive created on the destination, but the files still get restored to destination C:, whether or not the destination includes an M: drive. (I don't understand why the files are included in the profile in the first place.)
