Is it possible to delete the shortcut to a user profile in the drop-down menu in the Windows Explorer address bar?

We have a significant machines Windows 7 deployment, all managed by group policies.  All users have their Documents redirected to a file server as well as their other main libraries i.e. music, videos, photos, downloads, Favorites etc. - Despite this users continually save files in their roaming profile.  What I would do is, delete the shortcut to a profile of the users of the windows address bar to try and dissuade users from recording in their profile - please see the image below;

I can't find the Group Policy settings to remove this link?

I hope you can help

Thank you

Ash

Hi Ashley,

Personally, I apologize for the delay. Because these machines are managed by group policies, my experience I cannot work on it. You can create a new post related to your question in TechNet for other members also suggest.

I hope that there was a way I could answer your query.

    I accidentally deleted the process explore on my computer so now I have no task bar and no icons on my desktop. How can I fix?

    You cannot remove a process, you probably just stopped it.  In the Task Manager (where you have completed the process), click file | New task and in the dialog box that opens type "Explorer" and press ENTER.

  • The Drop Down Menu number of Excel spreadsheets?

    Trying to open an Excel file created by my boss in number. There a few in drop-down menus, (pictured below) and they will not display correctly. Many prefer using numbers than Excel, anyone know of any tricks to make this menu drop-down appear in numbers as in Excel?

    In numbers, they simply appear not at all. Help, please! Thank you

    In Excel, you can automatically fill a drop-down list with values within a specific range of cells through 'Data Validation '.

    Numbers have no drop-down menu, but it doesn't have a Menu called data format.  It is easy to populate a drop-down list with values manually; Select the cells that contain different values which you want to make a choice and format on the Shortcut Menu. The result will be something very similar to your screenshot.

    But in doing so fully automatic as in Excel is not currently possible in number.

    Numbers provides an attractive work environment, but if you frequently need to exchange documents with your boss and your boss uses Excel, then better use Excel.

  • How can I open Web sites that I put in the drop-down menu when I click on the blue arrow to the menu drop-down

    I have windows XP. I use msn.com for my homepage. I entered the sites I want to go to every day. These sites are in the drop-down menu when I click on the blue arrow down. When I click on any one of these sites, they are not open. What can I do to fix this.

    Your user agent shows you are running Firefox in compatibility mode for Windows 98 (NT 4.10).

    • User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 4.10; rv:37.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/37.0

    Make sure that you are not Firefox running in compatibility mode.
    You can open the properties of the desktop Firefox shortcut via the context menu and check under the tab "compatibility".
    Make sure that all items are disabled in the tab "Compatibility" in the Properties window.

  • The drop down menu boxes that appear under the heading of Firefox do not fill. A form of box on the screen, but it is empty. Given zero no has not solved the problem.

    The file, editing, display and help tabs that were on the previous version of FireFox Menu bar top are apparently incorporated into the "FireFox" drop-down box in the latest version of the browser. I was unable to open those tabs earlier, so by the recommendation of the Support Forum, I have Firefox on my laptop. Now not only the tabs above are missing after this reset, but the drop down menu does not open in any submenus. What I see now is a box on the surrounded black screen, but sub menu selections such as save as, print, copy etc are not shown in the box. This is why the Navigator is not functional in its current state.
    Does anyone have a fix for this problem that will not delete my favorites and other content stored on Firefox? Please save me to return to Internet Explorer.

  • Why are the buttons, tabs, address bar, etc acting sometimes glitch? (see details)

    I can't explain the problem with the words really... See photos attached.

    I'm using Firefox 4 for the major part of the beta and RC 1 now. This has been a recurring problem for me. This seems to happen randomly. It is virtually a daily show, although it occurs whenever I hear myself.

    I can't pinpoint the problem to any add-ons. In fact I think I disabled all at one time and it happened again.

    Sometimes when you use the address bar, sometimes when you use the drop down menu bookmarks or the Firefox button. Sometimes, the window of the whole browser it... but not as often.

    Any ideas what could be wrong here?

    If start you Firefox with the new profile (to be sure, follow the instructions in the last link above shortcut to a specific profile or launch Firefox from the command line, check out this link: command line arguments - sometimes I had to use -profile instead of Pei or it wouldn't work), you can try other things is to restart in safe mode ( Firefox button--> help--> restart with disabled modules) or maybe disable hardware acceleration (Options-> Advanced-> general-> uncheck use hardware acceleration when available)
