HKEY_USERS unloads the user profile hive every time a user logs off. If
you are logged off on your user account, you won't see the hive there
for it... So, yes, anything under HKEY_USERS *is* being deleted at
logoff. For example, I had a user I could not log onto a terminal
server because the hive did not unload properly, and I used getsid to
match SID to account, then went into regedt32 and manually unloaded it
from HKEY_USERS so the account could log back on after that...

If I log in as a normal user, I can go to CURRENT_USER and see
my registry hive.
If I log out and go back in as an admin, my normal user keys,
neither of them exist.
There are a couple there, but those are of users who had logged
in before this problem
surfaced. I know mine is not there by highlighting a key and
checking Security to
see who has access. Either that or the keys are being deleted at
logout.

David,
When you say "it does not add that key to USERS", what are you expecting
to see?
For each logged-in user, the HK_USERS should contain two entries....one
with his/her SID and another with SID_Classes. HK_Current_User is merely
your own personal link to the USERS entry with your SID.
You can tell who is currently logged in by determining the owner of each
entry in USERS.
HTH,
Raff

Actually, it seems to be creating the CURRENT_USER key while logged in,
but it does not add that
key to the USERS registry key...

I have a Win2k/Citrix Term Server which dies not seem to be creating the
HKEY_USERS registry keys
when users log in. Any ideas?
