Here is the XML file which allow Migrating “My Network Places” using USMT.
Migration is from Windows XP to Windows 7.
This XML copies content from:

USMT 4.0, ScanState VBS script

Here is very useful vbs script which execute ScanState on local machine, asking for a user name and location (local or network) share and gives results in HTML.

 Before to start you should specify few variables inside the script.

IndirectKeyMapper: RegLoadKey ...C:\Documents and Settings\...\NTUSER.DAT) failed

Issue: USMT 4.0 ScanState.exe is stuck in the loop and it takes time to get done. This happens on the machine where the user is not properly removed, it means just User folder is deleted from C:\Documents and Settings but its registry settings still exist.

 In the Scan.log files different warnings show that the process is stuck on user3 which does not exist in C:\Documents and Settings.

To resolve this issue this command should be executed before to start ScanState command:

SET MIG_IGNORE_PROFILE_MISSING=1
