We're currently migrating a user from using Roaming Profiles to Redirected Folders in SBS 2008. &nbsp;They were using roaming profiles with their old 2003 server.<br />

Currently I've been deleting roaming profile path in Active Directory and then turning on folder redirection from the SBS console. &nbsp;I'm wondering if it's necessary to switch the profiles on the local PC's from roaming to local as well or will this be taken care of by making the changes to the server?
