Updating Outlook with a PRF
April 14, 2011

We use a pop based E-mail service so do not have a global address list in Outlook. I recently set up Active Directory as a LDAP based address book and wanted to send the setup to all of my existing clients through login script. I read many articles on how to create a prf, but when I went to import it with outlook.exe /importprf , it kept creating a profile called “Outlook Default Profile” instead of updating the current profile. The problem in the end was that I was typing Outlook.exe /importprf update.prf instead of outlook.exe /importprf c:\update.prf. The importprf command switch requires the full path of the file to work, otherwise it creates a blank profile.
Hope this Helps!
