short answer: is there a native way to copy a user profile from win10 or win11 without 3th part solutions?

The only way to copy a user profile is during an unattended setup.

Any other method of copying profiles is unsupported and will have issues.

Hi Nicole,

Thanks for your post. If you would like to transfer user profile without 3rd party software, you can use the following Microsoft methods:

Method 1. Use Microsoft accounts

Switching to a Microsoft account is indeed one of the easiest methods to transfer a Windows 10 profile to a new user or PC. By using a Microsoft account that is signed in on your current PC, you can effortlessly sync your profile to another PC by simply signing in with the same account.

It's important to understand that a Microsoft account allows you to replicate your Windows 10 user profile settings, but it doesn't transfer your files and programs. To transfer your files and programs, you will need to explore additional solutions.

Method 2. Copy and paste via an external hard drive or USB drive

Using OneDrive for data transfer requires internet and if you don’t have internet but have an external hard drive or a big USB flash drive, you can still perform Windows profile transfer. And the way is to use the copy & paste feature.
