    HapuKurk got a reaction from sirtex in Moving User folders Unattended   
    Can be done without issues via autounnatend.xml.
    Example from my x86 install disc (method applies to x64 also), Key component is "FolderLocations".


    <FolderLocations>
    <ProfilesDirectory>D:\Users</ProfilesDirectory>
    <ProgramData>D:\ProgramData</ProgramData>
    </FolderLocations>

    Basically it has do be done before users are creted, to avoid issues.


    <settings pass="oobeSystem">
    <component name="Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup" processorArchitecture="x86" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="NonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
    <FolderLocations>
    <ProfilesDirectory>D:\Users</ProfilesDirectory>
    <ProgramData>D:\ProgramData</ProgramData>
    </FolderLocations>
    <UserAccounts>
    <LocalAccounts>
    <LocalAccount wcm:action="add">
    <Name>NipiTiri</Name>
    <Group>Administrators</Group>
    <Password>
    <PlainText>true</PlainText>
    <Value>XXXXX</Value>
    </Password>
    </LocalAccount>
    <LocalAccount wcm:action="add">
    <Name>Konn</Name>
    <Group>Users</Group>
    <Password>
    <PlainText>true</PlainText>
    <Value>YYYYY</Value>
    </Password>
    </LocalAccount>
    </LocalAccounts>
    </UserAccounts>

    Has a small caveat though... legacy or applications that have hardcoded paths (I have none fortunately), will create duplicate folders to "old" default locations and will use them. Basically cosmetic issue...
