Yet another folder redirection thread

[AmosPerrins]

We run a Windows/OS X dual boot set-up for about 40 or so machines in the building and have found users home folders to be somewhat messy - along with the Windows known folders (My Music, My Videos, Downloads etc.) we've also got the OS X mainstays (Music, Movies, Documents etc.) hence multiple folders with the same purpose.

 

Currently we've got redirection in place to handle this on the Windows side, however, would it make sense to have the Windows and the OS X folders pointing at the same place (e.g. instead of My Videos, we'd have that redirected to the OS X-created Movies folder)? My main concern is the My Documents folder which is currently pointing at the home folder as per multiple 'best practise' documents - would redirecting it to 'Documents' be likely to break anything?
