This should work. Check for a key called firstrun or first-run I the same place as your ImportPRF key. Delete them and then try again. Double check all your steps as I spent ages working on this a while back and I was just being stupid. (wrong path name to PRF !!!) If you double click the PRF file it should create the MAPI profile. This then proves that fault is not with the PRF file but with your registry settings. Another way to do it is launch outlook.exe with the /importprf switch with the path to the prf file.

I have used the Custom Installation wizard and created a PRF file. In my PRF file I have the following [General] Custom=1 ProfileName=Outlook DefaultProfile=Yes OverwriteProfile=Append ModifyDefaultProfileIfPresent=True [ServiceEGS] MailboxName=%UserName% HomeServer=exchange server name [Service1] OverwriteExistingService=No UniqueService=Yes MailboxName=%UserName% HomeServer=exchange server name AccountName=Microsoft Exchange Server I have also configured the following in the registry according to the Microsoft PRF document: Hkcu\software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Setup Here I added a Reg_SZ value called Import PRF. In this value I added a unc path to the PRF file. Also deleted the first run value under setup. Still does not work. Any ideas?
