Hello,
I'm using windows server 2022 from azure portal and i create users to have access my server, so when i created users in my server, users can they able to delete and create folder in C Drive.
After that i wanted to apply my users Group Policy about drives, so when i blocked C Drive using Group Policy and i enabled "prevent access to drives from my computer" my users can't able to use desktop,document,picture and downloads and they got massage saying "this operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. please contact your system administrator"
So is there away to prevent access C Drive except "desktop,document,picture and downloads" ?
Thank you in advance.

Hello arwah abdalla,
Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community forum.
You can try to redirect these user folders to another network shared path using Group Policy, then block the C drive.
