Folder Redirection on SBS 2008 and Windows 7 Laptop
I have Folder Redirection setup and it is working fine except for one problem. This is on SBS 2008 and Windows 7 When the laptop has a network connection, and I log in it works perfect. But, If I disable the network connection and restart the computer and log in it does not redirect the desktop to the offline folder. The My Documents folder works perfectly offline but the desktop does not work. When I browse through the offline folders I do see the redirected offline Desktop folder with all the synced files, but they do not show up on my desktop. Is there something I am missing? Thanks.Roman

Hi, I suspect that it is because the logon process will initial the users’ Desktop every time. But not the Document. Please check whether the Desktop target is where you setup? You may refer to the following steps: 1. Open your Computer, then Right-click then Desktop icon in the right Window. 2. Hit Shortcut tab. 3. Under Target you will find out the directory. Also, You can try two things to fix it: Right click desktop>view>show desktop items. If that does not work. Right click desktop>personalization>change desktop icons>restore default>ok. Then do Right click desktop>view>show desktop items.
