Failed to perform redirection of folder My Pictures. The files for the redirected folder could not be moved to the new location. The folder is configured to be redirected to <\\server1\%username%$\My Documents\My Pictures>. Files were being moved from <C:\Documents and Settings\Joe\My Documents\My Pictures> to <\\server1\Joe$\My Documents\My Pictures>. The following error occurred while copying <C:\Documents and Settings\Joe\My Documents\My Pictures\Desktop.ini> to <\\server1\Joe$\My Documents\My Pictures\Desktop.ini>:

If this action is performed by hand, in other words if the copy is done at this same machine using the same credentials (logged in as Joe) and copying these same files and paths by hand using Windows Explorer it works indicating any rights issues are not the issue. Everything we check indicates the security ID used, in this case account Joe is assigned the owner of this object.
If you notice up top where I have event ID 112...I notice that for the User information we have Domain\joe with the username in lower case...is there case sensitivity happening here at all? Should

2.Do you have any GPO that does not allow the user to modify their desktop settings? That would prevent the destop.ini file from being movedThe other thing that worked for me in a similar scenario is to make sure in the GPO that the users don't have exclusive rights to their Documents and Desktop folder. As soon as I check that off, it let me redirect just fine.
3.Also run chkdsk c:/f
