Hello

We have about 30 workstations that all have a generic windows logins, and user specific logins for windows 10.

If i wanted to copy AppData from a specific application (say logitech GHUB). Is there a way to 'copy and paste' the AppData folder so that it applies to all users that login to that workstation?

Can that be done with admin rights?

E.g.

C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Local\LGHUB

C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Roaming\LGHUB

I just don't want to have to install all the profiles in GHUB for individual users that login to windows.

Not great at comps sorry :(

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

    Unfortunately, copying an entire "AppData"directory directly from one user to another isn't feasible due to security and privacy reasons. Each user's"AppData" directory contains sensitive personal data and settings, which should not be shared between users.

    I hope the information above is helpful.

    Best Regards,

    Yanhong Liu
