Tips & Tricks:

pszProfilePath's capacity must not exceed 260 characters or CreateProfile will return error code 0x800706f7.

Sample Code:

    using (System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity i = new System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity(token))
    {
        System.Text.StringBuilder s= new System.Text.StringBuilder(260);
        uint c= Convert.ToUInt32(s.Capacity);
        int hResult = CreateProfile(i.Owner.Value, username, s, c);
    }
