2 domains same problem

[Sir]

PCs stuck at folder redirection at user login... other symptoms... all relating to appdata folder.... shutouts and pins blank..... office docs security settings wrong...... the main thing that stops Work is the long login times and temp profile when it does eventually get there!

 

How can this be only me that this is happening to as it happens at both my large schools since last weeks’ updates!?

 

Please help if you have any clues.....

[Sir]

Should say... seen the same issue on 10 and 7

Have to tried process of elimination by removing some policies that are applying?

[Sir]

Thanks Liam. Will thank proper when on a pc but funny you should mention as I was getting back to basics and on our users respective policies at both places, I noticed that app data redirection was set to copy all to new location ie under user docs on file sever share. Seeing as some are massive I think this was causing the issue and cannot for life remember if I would have set this like this... i did see that both policies has been modified on both sites within a day of each other..... last week.. I unchecked that box in the redirect policy settings tab and logged in straight away. I am not sure if this was the part of the policy that was changed as I do not have auditing turned on (next job) but on quick reading around, this looks usual practice ie copying appdata to new location so no idea what has happened still to the lack of appdata access all f a sudden for many users. I cannot browse to users appdata from their accounts either but security says they have full control..... this is strange indeed

If you're redirecting Appdata then don't. It's the root of a lot of issues.

Often always gpo or dns

I never redirect appdata I leave eveything local
