<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
All users have their desktop folders redirected via GPO.<br />
I want to move all of these desktops to a new server.<br />
<br />
I have setup another GPO (For testing)<br />
I've set the permission of this new GPO to only apply to a test user.<br />
I've denied permissions of the old GPO to the test user.<br />
<br />
I've logged in as the test user, the users desktop files were successfully moved to the new location. But the test users desktop is blank, and still appears to be pointing to the old location.<br />
<br />
Any suggestions?<br />
Permissions are the same as the old folder structures, and given the user's desktop files were successfully moved I don't think this is a permissions error.
