About the Event ID 4098 Application Log in Event Viewer

Good day!

I have been receiving the Event ID 4098 saying:

The user 'Sample User' preference item in the 'Map X: [Sample Directory Path]' Group Policy object did not apply because it failed with the error code '0x80070002 the system cannot find the file specified.' This error was supressed.

  • Log Name: Application
  • Source: Group Policy Shortcuts
  • Event ID: 4098
  • Level: Warning
  • User: SYSTEM

I cannot find any user under the name 'Sample User' in our AD nor do we have the Group Policy Object indicated in the description of this particular event log. 

Can you help me identify where the user as well the Group Policy Object is coming from?

Thank you in advance!

Hi Revenance,

You can use the following thread solution if you have only got this error on Win7 client.
