RDS server 2012rs - folder redirection issue - new path not applying

[pooley]

I had to move some of the staff document folders (I know I should have dfs but..)

 

I created a new GPO pointing at the new ahare location.

 

As per the title, I have a 2012r2 rds server that when staff log on will not pic up the new location unless I reboot the server immediately after they login and get the eventvwr Folder redirection will be aplied next time you og on etc etc.

 

I can log on and off (tired 5 times for one user) and the new path will not apply, same Will be applied at next login rubbish in eventvwr, if i reboot the server once the user logs in, the next time they getthe new path and all is well. But it's only ok for that 1 user. Next teacher to log in has the same \\path to old share\desktop unavailabe message.

 

I gave tried, gpupdate, force and boot, as user and as admin.

 

Just cannot get it to apply for all users without a bl00dy reboot.

 

Anyone have any suggestions ?

 

DC's are server 2016&2019, domain level functional level is 2012.

I'll reply to my own post in case someone else has this issue, not sure I have totally fixed it as I don't have any other staff monaing yet, but I did have 1 user that wouldn't pick it up, showed up in eventvwr as no changes weere made to folder redirection so it was complete.

 

I discovered her profile size was over 30gb, years of photos in folders on desktop and my docs. Moved all that and guess what, all of a sudden her login decided there was a change to the folder location. First i've come across where size actially matters ... chortle chortle.

 

I'm off to bed..
