Hi, I am in the process of trying to change an existing roaming profile for students to a mandatory one. The previous technician has set up a redirection for my documents from the server. I have followed all the guides on mandatory profiles and everything is great except for the my documents redirect. I have created an mpm profile I want to use on one of my laptops, and then copied it over to a network folder as per the notes. However, when I test the profile with a user the my documents is going to the my documents of my mpm profile. Are there any settings I change to make get the my documents on to point to the new user not the mpm profile I set up? Thanks

Hi, the school I work at has roaming profiles set up for all users ( set up by the previous technician). This was fine while we had a suite of PCs but we have recently purchased laptops and login times are very slow. I have read all the info on here about the types of profile to use and how to set it up, and had thought a mandatory profile would be the way forward, however, I want to set up teacher laptops, meeting room pcs and classroom laptops with different shortcuts, desktops etc. If I remove the roaming profiles from the server and created local default user profiles, and then use GPM to redirect my documents etc and apply policies would this work ok in anyones experience. I think if I was starting from scratch life would be a bit easier but some users here are reluctant to too much change! Thannks
