Hi all I have a very strange issue on a Server 2012 domain using Windows 7 desktops.
When a user logs on for the first time the desktop and start menu do not get redirected and I receive the following error
Failed to apply policy and redirect folder "Desktop" to "\SVR\Desktops$".
Redirection options=0x1000.
The following error occurred: "Failed to build the list of known sub folders".
Error details: "The system cannot find the file specified.
".
However on the 2nd logon the desktop and start menu are redirected correctly.
Description:
Successfully applied policy and redirected folder "Desktop" to "\SVR\Desktops$".
Redirection options=0x1000.
This also only seems to affect the newer HP Prodesk computers we have started to use.
The desktops and startmenu redirects are setup for a group of users and permissions are as follows
Share permissions - Everyone Full Control
Folder permissions - UserGRP Read and Execute only
Any help would be appreciated
