SP4 Win10 Temporary Profiles for Domain Users
We purchased two SP4's running Win10. These are the first Win10 devices in our network and I'm battling a temporary profile issue.
I turned on the SP4's, went through normal setup, and then connected them to the Domain. Upon reboot, I logged in using my Domain Admin account and began installing software. Once I had installed all of the company-required software, I gave one of the tablets to another user. She logged in and started personalizing her profile...desktop background, application preferences, etc. She had almost everything the way she wanted it. She rebooted and when she logged in, all of the personalizations were gone.
When I investigated, I found that her profile was listed in system advanced settings as a temporary profile. We rebooted again with the same thing, temporary profile.
I logged back in using my Domain Admin account and everything was ok with a Local profile.
What I've tried:
No matter what I try, my domain admin account gets a local profile but any other domain user gets a temporary profile. I'm pretty sure this is a Win10 problem, but figure at this point, I have to consider it being a SP4 problem too, until I'm proven wrong.
Anyone have any suggestions? I'm at a complete loss for ideas at this point. I've submitted on Microsoft Technet and on Spiceworks and havn't gotten a suggestion that helped.

What I've tried:
- Made sure no group policy is being applied to the user or the computer.
- Gave the user domain admin rights to be sure it wasn't just a permissions problem.
- Tried other domain user accounts with no luck.
- Reset the SP4 and tried it all over again.
- Create a new local user. Local users receive a local profile.
