Problem after moving user storage
We have move over to a nas system we net moved the users work over using Robocopy
and then re maped there home drives in AD we then redirected the My Doc folder, Favorites, desktop to the new are in Group policy and now we have a problem that randomly we get the Open Folder error
This seems to be PC depended as the same use can log on to 2 PCs and on one get there errors on the other not get the error.
This is on a windows 7 pro PC with a windows server 2008 r2experience is the thing you get when you do not get what you want

Hi,
First, please check if you can ping the home drives in AD from the problematic computer.
It could be a permission issue which is related to UAC. You can refer to this article

Hi,
The error message occurs when users access
\\servername\sharename\documents$\versli\Desktop, the location may be unreachable. Once users get applied folder redirection policy, the network location of the folders redirected is written to registry key "User Shell Folders" under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\
You can check Desktop under the registry key above to see if the Desktop is pointing to new location, and then access the location. Can you reach it?
