Widnows 10 - Missing Drives and Devices

[Simcfc73]

I have a couple of users who have missing devices and drives and network locations in the My PC section. (the whole section s are missing) I can’t work out why. There aren’t any specific policies just for them or permissions and when I do a GP results it says Do Not Hide and Drives.

The drives are there.. I can type the drive letter in explorer and it comes up and I can add a network location manually.

 

The only thing on it is Pegasus XRL that’s unique to these but that’s just a plugin.

 

I’ve reinstalled a fresh W10 and the user is having the same issue.

 

Any suggestions.

 

PS. I even added them to the domain admin group to see, no dice.

I am dealing with two GPP failures at work now.

 

Scenario 1: Some printers are not deploying for some users.

Scenario 2: Some mapped drives are not mapping for some users.

 

While testing the printers not deploying issue I removed the 'Item-level targeting' tick from the affected GPO. The printer deployed to all users successfully. I am now in the process of building up the list of users, and computers where this printer should be deployed to.

 

Haven't heard from any users yet. However, could you try the same? (remove the 'Item-level targeting' Take care, though as removing the tick removes any users or groups you had targeted that are not returned when you reinstate the tick)

 

HTH.

Strangley I worked it out by removing some security groups from them and they appeared. I had a group to access the helpdesk which seemed to be the culprit. Theres no reason for it, the group didnt have any policies to it just permission to access the helpdesk site.

 

I'll put down to one of those things
