Hi there,
I'm currently testing Windows 10 in an environment with Windows Server 2012 R2 and 4 Windows 10 Pro 64 bit clients. All clients have been upgraded from Windows 7 Pro to Windows 10 Pro by disconnecting them from the domain and performing the upgrade with a Local Admin account. After the upgrade, I've re-added the clients to the domain.
In this environment, we use Roaming Profiles with Folder Redirection. As you can see below, the home folder for the user is mapped to drive P:
However, when the user logs in, no matter on which computer, drive P: goes to the following location:
\\server\UserData\Josephine.GE****
instead of
\\server\UserData\Josephine
I found that in the registry, %HOMESHARE% is set to the folder with suffix, instead of the one without suffix that I configured in this person's profile:
I can't find any errors in the Event Viewer, and to make things even more strange - the folder with suffix actually gets created on the server, but remains empty. All data that this user stores, goes to the folder without suffix.
The user has full access to the folder without suffix, so that shouldn't be the issue as well. Also, the user doesn't have an old folder in the C:\Users directory, which could have caused the suffix to be created. As you can see in the Registry screenshot above, the user just gets a "normal" folder in the C:\Users directory, without suffix.
Does anyone have an idea what causes this and how it can be fixed? I've been looking around these forums but can't seem to find a solution to this problem.
Thanks in advance!
Dennis
