I'm going to start a migration from all the company Pcs to Windows 7 Enterprise and due to company restrictions the users will not have visible the System drive C:\.
All the libraries are going to be configured using GPO Folder redirection to a network share, but the problem is that additionally on each library exist an included folder from C:\Users\Public\...

Anyone knows how can I remove this included folder from each library and how can I prevent the user to access these properties?

Hello porsousa, welcome to the Seven Forums.

Open the library, click Locations link on top of the window. Choose location you want to remove, click Remove.

Hi, thanks for your feedback, but this way I know already.
But the problem is that I want to implement that on all the machines and for all the users, in a automatically way because it's not admissible do that for each machine one by one...

Also I want to prevent the users of having access to the System drive.
Any other ideia?

I was thinking about doing this and other fine tuning in one machine, creating an image of it and deploying that image.
