asked on Folderredirection + Roaming profiles + MS Access
We have an MS Access database that uses the Roaming Profile folder for the front-end and for various temporary files (some of our installations are running on Citrix or RDP and this works really well). Everything works perfectly, with the exception of PCs that have FolderRedirection enabled. On those PC we get problems, which appear to be timing & locking issues.
Folder example: C:\Users\Andrew\AppData\Ro
Is there any way to exclude this folder from FolderRedirection, whilst leaving everything else in tact. Everything important within this folder is on the server, so it does not need to be synced / backed-up.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

That's not a bad idea, but I am not sure that Appdata\local\<company> would work correctly on Cirtix/RDP setups. I may be wrong,

Thanks guys - really useful info.
I may post another question about the RDP side of things shortly.

Redirected folder is a different concept and does not necessarily have anything to do with the roaming profile. When set using a GPO, I redirect MyDocuments and desktop to a server location. I still use roaming profiles, but Documents are no longer part of it.
