Unable to apply Folder Redirection Policy

-

hey technet,

i have created gpo domain , im trying apply folder redirection gpo ou contains users.

i have set folder redirection policy folders: appdata roaming, desktop, downloads, documents , favorites.

when apply update using gpupdate /target:user /force, asks logoff , when log in, see redirection policy has been applied desktop folder.

for reset of folders appdata roaming, documents, downloads & favorites; see error on event log stating doesnt have access create folders of path \\<domain>\root\users\<username>

i suspect related folder permissions of user's home directory.

please suggest solution.

regards, alan.

hi alan,

when troubleshooting these issues it's smart idea to  run gpresult aswel checking eventlog, see exact error codes group policy has encountered while applying. can opening elevated cmd prompt , typing gpresult /h report.hml. report.html include full visual aid assist in troubleshooting.

seeing see permissions error in eventlog - have checked if user has permissions using effective permissions ? user must have permissions create folders in own directory. microsoft has several documents outlining folderredirections, recent(and advised) can find here

also; should try reffer fileserver hostname (unless using dfs) \\<domain>\root\users\<username> should \\<servername>\root\users\<username>

regards,

kelvin
