Back in the days of Windows NT, the roaming profile was all the rage. A user could go to the office and work at his own computer, using the network, e-mail, files, and other resources. If, for some reason, that user has to switch to another workstation temporarily, he logs on to a different computer and Windows downloads the settings for his individual profile; just as if he were sitting at his own computer.

Turning Vista Features Off

Once you summon Vista's diagnostics, they can often resolve a fault automatically. If that strategy fails, the troubleshooter then shows you a list of possible actions that will help you in solving the problem on your own.
