Policy to backup %userprofile%
Issue:
I am trying to setup a backup policy that backs up the currently logged in users profile.
Background:
Computer name: jsmith-nb
Current folders in the c:\documents and settings\
admin, all users, bjones, jsmith (plus there could be others)
Problem:
jsmith is the main user for the laptop jsmith-nb and he is the user logged in 99% of the time. I want B&R to backup the c:\documents and settings\jsmith folder. I set the policy to backup using the %userprofile% variable and the issue I am having is that B&R backs up a different profile. There are several profiles on jsmith's computer including one called admin. B&R only backs up the admin profile which has no real user data in it (Even when jsmith is currently logged in). I'm not sure if it is just grabbing the first profile alphabetically or what. Is there a way to do what I want?
Any input would be appreciated.

Hello Jon,
Thank you for using [[http://www.acronis.com/enterprise/ | Acronis Corporate Products]]
Unfortunately, I am unable to provide you with a solution right now. It is also unclear for me how you have set the backup plan selecting the %userprofile% value as a source for the backup operation. To find the exact reason of the issue we need the step-by-step screen shots of your actions. Could you please show us every step of creating the backup plan?
Thank you.
