GPO Screen Saver not delete Pictures
hi,
I have been playing with windows screen saver
I have created an folder within the File Server to show pictures as a screen saver
I have 5 pictures I would like to show
These are copied to the client machine from GPO
GPO Setting
Source Files \\fileserver\ScreenSaver\*
Destination Folder c:\windows\ScreenSaver
Suppress errors on individual File actions
Read Only - Disabled
Hidden - Disabled
Archive - disabled
Stop processing items on this extension if an error occurs on this item - No
Remove this item when it is no longer applied - No
Apply once and do not reapply - No
This works a treat but When I delete a picture from the file server, The client machine is still picking up the old picture. Do I need to add an gpo to delete the client machine folder c:\windows\screensaver\*.*
