My Documents Library/Folder redirection

Can you please share more information about the current setup?

From Which OS to Which OS was the upgrade done?
Did you follow some white paper ?

Thank you  TG-TIS, I will attempt that

binumicrosoft, I believe the upgrade was from SBS2003 to SBS2011, we ended up having a permissions issue where users were unable to access their previous document location on the server, we reset the user profiles on the local machines and the permissions issue was no longer present. However, instead of 'my documents' pointing to something like server/usershares/username they now point to the default windows location. We can now map and access the //server/usershares/username location, so the permissions issue is gone, but I want to get the users back to having the server location be where 'my documents' points.

Thanks

The location of My Documents is defined in the Registry. To change it, change this key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders

Value Name: Personal
Value Type: REG_SZ

You can change that with a group policy or the reg.exe command in a script.

After changing this, any documents that were created locally  will have to be manually moved to the server share.

Hi Dkuhlman,

Did you try my solution? Did it resolve your problem?
