Have you assigned the group policy to the OU in which the laptop resides?<br />
<br />
It could be you only applied it to the Desktops OU...<br />
<br />

I have enabled Roaming Profile via the Domain GP and each of my users now have their own Roaming Profile folder on the share I designated when setting up the GP Policy. We have just had one user log onto their office-based PC which has many Files/Folder etc on the desktop. He has bought his laptop in today and logged on to it whilst connected to the network but the items which are on his office-based PC Desktop are not appearing on his laptop. Ive asked him to log out/in on both devices but its not made any difference.<br />
<br />
The server is Windows 2008 R2 and the client PC/Laptop are both Windows 10.<br />
<br />
Wondering if I missing something here?<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

Networking

A personal computer is a general-purpose computer whose size, capabilities and price make it useful for individuals, and is intended to be operated directly by an end-user with no intervening computer time-sharing models that allowed systems to be used by many people, usually at the same time. Personal computers may be connected to a local area network (LAN), either by a cable or a wireless connection, and through that to the Internet. A personal computer may be a laptop computer or a desktop computer running an operating system such as Windows, Linux or Macintosh OS.

Roaming profiles

A desktop computer is a personal computer designed for use at a single location due to its size and power requirements, usually by one person. The most common configuration has a case that houses the power supply, motherboard, disk storage (usually one or more hard disk drives and optical disc drives); a keyboard and mouse for input; and computer monitor and printer for output. The case may be oriented horizontally and placed atop a desk or vertically and placed underneath or beside a desk.
