Folder redirection folders and writable Volumes

If we use the folder redirection via GPO for our desktop view and also deploy writable volumes, how can we be sure that writable volumes does not store the same file data which is already redirected? For example, if a user stored a 20 GB on the desktop file, and we have the folder redirection by storing this safe to say the home directory of the user, how can we ensure that accessible volumes in writing is not to store this 20 GB file too?

Thank you

Hey Iforbes,

We also use the folder redirection in our virtual machine as well as writable volumes.

As a reference, Appvolumes does nothing different that would make a 'normal' Windows machine I mean, it's that writable volumes stores no information that is not written on their local drive.

If you configure the folder redirection and files of succeeeds redirection of files stored on the homedrive because windows sees this directory as the location to store the information, it is not stored locally. However, if for the folder redirection for some reason fails and that the Office IS stored locally, information will be saved in the accessible volume writable.

Because the folder redirection is performed at the opening session that it is already in place when the user connects so information will not be stored on the available volume in writing. We do this successfully with desktop, my documents (and subfolders) and downloads and it works like a charm.

  • Can I import a folder under folders and complete at a time?

    I'm fairly new to LR and have TONS of files in a main folder on Vista.  These files have duplicate names, some have been taken with the digital camera of early gen as well as more recent files with my 40 d. But import each folder and subfolder 1 will both take 1 million years.  Here is basically what I want to do.

    (1) import all photos (probably about 6-8 thousand) at a time

    2) pass through these photos and mark thus get rid of the obviously crappy pictures that I'll never do anything with it, kill the dupes

    (3) tag Meta as much as I can

    4) export to a new foler

    All files are in jpg.  Day Memorial project well huh?

    Yes!

    First I place them in a single master folder, where you want your photos of LR to reside. The use of import in place, and "do not import duplicates" checked. This will make your job a little easier, hopefully.

  • A problem with the Redirection of folders and roaming profiles - Adobe Flash file

    This thread is in relation to a thread started for the Google Chrome browser.  Admins also suggested I have create a post here.  The link to the bug can be found here: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=97512

    This is the first post on the forums of Chrome:

    Here students use Windows 7 with redirection folders and roaming profiles.

    When in Chrome (any version) and they try to attach a file to an e-mail or upload a file to a site, a 'Find a file' window appears.  When they try to locate the file on their desktop or document file, Chrome hangs for a minute then prompt a user to enter their credentials. Even with the correct credentials prompt says access denied.

    If a local user without a roaming profile or the folder redirection tries the same thing that everything works as should.

    This problem does not occur in Internet Explorer (all versions) or Firefox (all versions)

    The "Search a file" window that appears resembles that of Windows XP, not the other from Vista or Windows 7.

    I also believe that I have posted here before on this topic, but can't seem to find the problem.

    Basically, right now I tell students not to use Chrome to download or attach data.

    I also confirmed AppData folder redirection to be a default/limitation in Flash Player 11 plugin... but only for Google Chrome built-in version of Flash Player 11 (usually located in the Chrome installation folder).  The version of Adobe (usually located in the Adobe installation folder) do not have this problem for me.

    Fortunately, Chrome allows you to install the version of Adobe if you want. I have disabled the plugin provided with Google Chrome and Google Chrome Frame, and my users were able again to use my Flash application:

    1. Google Chrome: type chrome://plugins/ in the URL
      Google Chrome Frame for IE: enter gcf: topic: plugins in the URL
    2. Click "Détails" to expand the list of plugin
    3. Scroll down to Flash
    4. If you have only one version and it is located somewhere in a folder of Chrome, then disable it, close your browser, reopen it, visit http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer and install the version of Adobe.
    5. If you have several versions, disable the version in the Chrome folder and try to use your Flash application again.

    It worked for me; your mileage may vary...

    rhl_yadav,

    It is IMPORTANT that you do not delete these files. They are very important to the operating system.

    Instead, you can hide:

    • Open the Options folder by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, appearance and personalization, and then clicking Folder Options.
    • Click the view tab.
    • Under Advanced settings, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" and "Hide protected operating system files ' are not checked, and then click OK.

  • Windows Server 2012 R2, synchronization of offline files and Folder Redirection GPO. The synchronization failed. Access denied.

    I need a solution for the problem below.  I have seen that other people have experienced the same problem but I couldn't find a solution.

    I've set up a GPO that synchronizes user files to a network, for example, the My Documents folder location.  The client machine is running W7 Pro x 64.  Assume that the primary user of the machine is user1.

    Sync Center displays an error.  The error reads 'Documents. (\\Server\Profiles$\User2).  Access is denied. »

    Obviously, the problem here is that despite being connected as long as User1 tries to synchronize the user folders to other profiles on the computer the folder redirection, whether they are connected or not.

    We never seen this before and if so has anyone ever managed to find a solution to this problem on a shared machine?

  • Manager of Persona and folder redirection

    I have a small question I want to use the persona Manager, but I have the folder redirection for all of our users.  We HAVE simply to redirect certain folders like desktop, etc.  The problem happens with view.  I have a lot of doctors who insist on the use of several desktop computers (persistent and non-persistent) to do their work on a daily basis.  They use persist so they have their OUTLOOK and when they wander into an exam room that they want to use their desktop NO-persist.  I'm sure I can do what I want with management of Persona, but the folder redirection type of obstruction which.  Is there a way for me to use both so that I can get all the docs to use only a single pool of computers on the view?  Can EMU help me somehow this issue?  Your comments and suggestions are welcome.  Thank you!

    Perry

    It can all be done with non-persistent desktops.

    It is generally recommended to configure the folder redirection for desktop, downloads, documents, etc when you use persona... This keeps the amount of data replicated by persona to a minimum.  It goes the same for EMU.  Management of character has its own folder redirection settings strategy, which is what I use in my deployments.

  • Folder XP 'customize' properties tab with "applies to subfolders" checked applied property passes to all folders and all subfolders on the computer.

    You can finely tune and crafts which properties are applied to files by using the option you mentioned, as well as "templates folder" as well.  But using both in tandem is not very intuitive.

  • AppStack AND accessible Volume writable?

    Hey,.

    I have a scenario where I would use one or more AppVolumes for the delivery of corporate applications, but also want to allow some users to install their own applications.

    I have traced the AppVolumes to some specific virtual machines and accessible Volume writable for the user. "When the user tries to connect, I get the following (in Volumes App Management Console) error message: 'Jump volumes for user <>', because <>of the computer already has volumes" and the user does not see installed user applications. Is this a limitation of the product, or one I have something wrong?

    Thank you!

    If you have a machine based assignment you can not also have an assignment of the user function. My guess is that you have assigned the Appstack machine. Assign the appstack to the user and it should work.

  • The target of the My Documents folder redirection

    Dear users,
    I did as I found for redirecting my documents to a different location on my 'C' drive and something strange happened (Windows 7 Home Premium)
    Went to Users\YourLoginName\Documents, properties, location, travel tab and chose him a folder target "Esteban" that I had created before.
    Now the weird stuff, the folder 'Esteban' was replaced by 'my documents' in the new location and is not visible.
    Basically, what makes Windows 7 is not only point to the new folder but replace it.
    This behavior, that I didn't see in WIN XP in which the record would remain even if my documents has done for her.
    I tried to go back and redo everything. I restored the default location of the folder my documents and now I noticed that the new folder which has been
    created before 'C' is always there and now she can not be cleared to return to zero.
    I'd appreciate your feedback.

  • Folder redirection of blackBerry Smartphones

    I'm relatively new to BB, but I think that most of the time I understood it. I use Exchange and the BES. Catalog of all the subfolders in my Inbox upward on my Storm and I use the selected folder redirection but the Desktop Manager but still no e-mail messages are appearing in the selected folders?

    I am at a loss. Any help would be great.

    Hello and welcome!

    You say that you have the active folder redirection through DM, but you do not see the messages. I assume you mean that you do not see them on the storm? But you see on your Desktop Outlook? If so, they probably are not yet configured for synchronization on your handheld. Check the following:

    1. When inside the list of Messages, click on the BB (the button to the right of the green phone button) button
    2. Select Options
    3. Select the e-mail settings
    4. Change the first box (Message Services) what she is called to your BES mail (if you have only BES to come through, then it is likely that the available selection only)
    5. Click BB button again, and then select the Folder Redirection
    6. Whatever what is indicated in this list with a + sign is a view reduced... develop those which may contain your desired folders
    7. Make sure that the box next to your desired folders are not black - just click to change their
    8. Whatever it is black won't be sync BES... whatever this color will be (probably blue)

    Note that you probably WON'T get old messages to your BB. BB / BES are not designed to synchronize your handheld to the mailbox of the server. On the contrary, they are designed to deliver new messages to the handheld device, which means that only new messages delivered to your subfolders will come to your handheld once folders are enabled for synchronization (per above).

  • BlackBerry smartphones ~ a HELP of EMERGENCY NECESSARY ~ Folder Redirection only shows Desktop - no box to letters or records

    Hi all.  I need help as soon as possible please. I have searched, but probably did not use the right conditions to refine what I was looking for.  But I need someone who can help as soon as possible.

    I have a client with a Bold 9700, I've updated since a curve 8230-, but had similar questions.  In any case, the customer has several folders and rules in Outlook 2007 to move the items in those folders.

    The problem: when I navigate to Options > e-mail settings > Folder Redirection - shows desktop only and it is not extensible.   If I choose to view the folders, I see that browser and nothing related to Outlook folders.  We use the synchronization for ALL wireless and DM is not available for the Office of the customer. (yes I know...)

    What I tried:

    Activation of a new device.

    Remove CMIME and sending Service books.

    Updated the encryption key

    I checked the BES (5.02) to display the parameters of Redirection of customers, I can see the folders and that they are selected, but not on camera.

    Please... Please... Help!

  • Problems with the Folder Redirection with Persona management, discovers 6.2.0

    Hi all

    I use Persona configuration management to the top of the folder redirection. Office, Documents and bookmarks are copied to the location redirected when you first login. When the user connects again, persona does not load these elements in the redirected folders, but creates rather their local copies. It's strange.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Kind regards
