Folks<br />
<br />
In one of the site I am managing I have one user connecting both locally (using a Win7 PC) and through RDP (Win2008).<br />
<br />
He does not have roaming profiles but we have redirected the Desktop folder to a share using GPO, the idea being to try to maintain unity between his local and virtual desktop, so to say.<br />
<br />
This seems to be working fine (i.e. shortcuts created in one or the other environment are indeed showing up as expected) but the positions of the icons are not persevered, much to the irritation of said user.<br />
<br />
Any idea what might create this behavior ?
