Question

Where the User Profile Pictures are stored in database? And in which database is it?

I've lost all the users' photos in high resolution from SharePoint Profiles and trying to find the way to restore these.

Was it helpful?

Solution

User Profile pictures are stored in the content database of MySites!

If you have changed your domain name for the SharePoint site, than you will not be able to retrive it unless you change the path of the pictures using powershell may be.

OTHER TIPS

If you are importing the User's picture from the AD, a full sync will fix it.

Basically User Profile Pictures stored in the User Photos/Profile Pictures folder on the root of mysite host url. Url will be like this " http://Mysite url/User Photos/Profile Pictures"

In this folder, you will be 3 sizes of a sing users.

If you have backup of your site, then restore it and copy the pictures from restored site to here.
