mandatory profiles

Are these 'old hat' now? We have been using them for years, and makes life so much easier.

 

We are now starting to see a few issues recently. We want to implement one drive client to map one drive and sharepoint but this causes issues. We use Cloudmapper, but the trust are reluctant to keep paying for it as one drive client is free.

 

What does everyone else do? Local profiles with a redirect to shared folder for desktop? if so, how do you delete profiles on log off for shared PC's?

We did away with mandatory profiles when we moved to Windows 10.

We have a very heavy list of folders for the roaming profile to ignore synchronising for students sp near enough get a fresh profile at each login and it's been fine with OneDrive for the last 12-18 months (all our users are configured for OneDrive for home drive only now)

 

All profiles are deleted at logoff other than laptops used off site, and the finance workstations since Sage200 is a terrible installer and only puts stuff in the local profile when it's installed.

We still user super mandatory on Windows 10. Works okay. Not supported, bit bodgy perhaps. I wouldn't recommend anyone set them up fresh now, but can be kept working fine. The OneDrive client is a big problem with them - if the user logs off before the file has synced, it'll be deleted along with the profile.
