How can I verify if an end user is using a roaming profile in Windows Vista?

Question

I know it's a really simple question but how can I verify if an end user is using a roaming profile in Windows Vista?

I should clarify -- I don't manage the user's network... I support a product that doesn't work with roaming profiles.

If you know the user's username and domain, you can walk them through checking it out.

1. Click start and right-click Computer.
2. Choose Properties.
3. Click on Advanced System Settings on the left.
4. Within the Advanced tab, click the Settings button under the User Profiles section.
5. Look for the DOMAIN\user in the list and look to the right. The Type will either be Local or Roaming.
