Hi Ang,

 

It sounds like a GPO might be overriding your settings.

I use roaming profiles, not sure if it works as local profile as well.
Anyway, there are a policy to delete local copy when logoff. No matter
if is local or roaming.





Hi

I tried this but it didnt work...  Im not sure if the servers in
question are not working due to OS hardening scripts...  If I login as a
user and customise.  I logout then login to the same server using the
same user (with same local profile) but the settings revert back to
default..  Are there any server settings that may prevent this
preference from being saved?

Thanks
Ang

Hi Angela,

try to set up whatever you want and save this profile to 'default'
profile so those users will take this settings.

works for me.

Rgrds,.



Hi 

I have a weird issue I was hoping someone can assist with.  I want to
set Windows Explorer View to Details for all users.  However it always
defaults back to Icons View when user logs out/in (even on the same
server).  We don't use roaming profiles.  Only local profiles are used
which are deleted nightly. Ive attempted the following based on numerous
posts that I have read to no avail 

1) Type:  Change user /install 
Open Explorer.exe 
Go to menu [Tools, Folder Options, View] and set performance of the
folder to detail
Close Explorer 
Go back to dosbox and type: change user /execute 

2) Login as a test user.  Set Folder options to Detail.  Logout.  Using
an admin account copy profile to default user 

Any thoughts/ideas on this one?  I think its really strange that my test
user isn't retaining the Detail view setting using a local profile.  Ive
ruled out profile corruption by testing with multiple accounts on
differrent servers - same issue.  Im happy to run a script via GPO that
sets the relevant HKCU key.  Just need to know what key to update to fix
the issue

Windows 2003R2
XenApp 4.5

Thanks
Ang
