Restircted Groups Profile Problems
I've been implementing restricted groups within our domain, but have been running into a problem. A few users have had issues with their local profile after the restricted groups policy has been applied. After the GPO is applied and they reboot they are presented with a new profile. In order to correct the problem I have to give the user permissions to the original profile and then point the registry key back to the correct profile. I have been unable to determine why this is happening...
Any ideas on how to correct this?

I haven't configured the policy for everyone, just one group. The problem only affects that groups. I did some testing prior to pushing out the policy and had no problems. On the test computer I added a new user to AD, added domain users to the local admin group to replicate our current configuration. (I know, I know domain users as local admins are bad, but that is what I am working to change).
Then I applied the restricted groups GPO, rebooted and verified the changes. Again, I had no problem on the test rig, but some users in the first group are running into issues.

firts you need to confirm if the policy is applied to that user, run on command prompt
GPRESULT /U adminuser /P adminpassword /USER targetusername
and see if the policy comes under group policy head.

GPRESULT /U adminuser /P adminpassword /USER targetusername
and see if the policy comes under group policy head.
plus some questions;
- Are you using roaming profiles for users?
- What restriction you applied to users?
- Is the problem happening with all users in that group or some, if its some users, make them login to a different machine and see if still exist?
- see event log of machine where user is login to check if any GP related event or any other errors that have far-off relation to issue even?

Does the problem occur for an user that doesn't get the policy applied?
