Explanation:
Mandatory User Profiles (Windows)
Reference:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/bb776895(v=vs.85).aspxA mandatory user profile is a special type of pre-configured roaming user profilethat administrators can use to
specify settings for users. With mandatory user profiles, a user can modify his or her desktop, but the changes
are not saved when the user logs off. The next timethe user logs on, the mandatory user profile created by the
administrator is downloaded. There are two types ofmandatory profiles: normal mandatoryprofiles and super-mandatoryprofiles.
User profiles become mandatory profiles when the administrator renames the NTuser.dat file (the registry hive)
on the server to NTuser.man. The .man extension causes the user profile to be a read-only profile.
User profiles become super-mandatorywhen the folder name of the profile path ends in .man; for example, \
\server\share\mandatoryprofile.man\.
Super-mandatory user profiles are similar to normalmandatory profiles, with the exception that users who have
super-mandatory profiles cannot log on when the server that stores the mandatory profile is unavailable. Users
with normal mandatory profiles can log on with the locally cached copy of the mandatory profile.
Only system administrators can make changes to mandatory user profiles.
