Windows 10: Account template

Hi there, Is it possible to configure a default account template of sorts so that when a new profile is added (local or domain account) it follows those preconfigured settings? I.e region settings (number separators, date format etc.) and other elements such as mapped drives etc that is usually stored on an account specific basis?

Folder Template with shortcut to folder inside folder.

I showed you the principle of a method that will do what you wish. To apply it to any folder structure you need to understand how it works.

• In my shortcut I defined the "Start in" folder as %CD%. This means that the shortcut must use the
  current folder as its base. In my example this was C:\Templates\Template1\TestA.
• For the shortcut I used this command line:
  
  explorer.exe ..\TestB\Target
  
  What exactly does this do? Here is the explanation:
  
  1. "..\" tells Explorer to step on up in the directory tree:
  
  C:\Templates\Template1\TestA -> C:\Templates\Template1
  
  2. "TestB" tells Explorer to steop one down in the directory tree:
  
  C:\Templates\Template1 -> C:\Templates\Template1\TestB
  
  3. "Target" tells Explorer to open the file or folder "Target".

Applying this knowledge, you could create a shortcut that makes Explorer step up two folders:

Explorer.exe ..\..\Template2\TestB\Target

C:\Templates\Template1\TestA

-> C:\Templates\Template1

-> C:\Templates

-> C:\Templates\Template2

-> C:\Templates\Template1\TestB

-> Open "Target"

Armed with this knowledge you can now fix your shortcut yourself.
