| Hi, our user directories are redirected to a server share i.e. \\servername\users\username with no problems under XP, however some of our users have now upgraded to Vista and we are now finding that the username directories are being automatically renamed to 'Documents' on the server for these particular users. The folders seem to co-exist quite happily without overwriting each other, and folder re-direction still works, however from an admin point of view we now have multiple copies of 'Documents' and no way of knowing which folder belongs to a particluar user. Does anyone know why this is happening, and how we can stop it? | Guest

| Here's a good article explaining the difference between XP and Vista for roaming users. http://technet2.microsoft.com/Window....mspx?mfr=true If you're just redirecting Documents then it's more than you need but it does explain the difference in behavior. -- Kerry Brown Microsoft MVP - Shell/User http://www.vistahelp.ca "Martin" <Martin@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:4556C3A9-7760-4CEC-A870-4BDCC9F88066@microsoft.com...
