Windows 7 My Documents Issue

Hello, hope someone can help.

I have server 2003 Standard with xp clients, running ok for 5 yrs - patched to latest updates. My documents folder for each user is set to U:\ which is their home drive (typically \\Server\UserName)

I have a new laptop with Win7 Pro, installed it & updated to latest patches as
local admin.

Made it a member of my domain & logged in as one of my users. Wished to change the my documents folder in same way. Found it in its new location
(C:\users\username) & went to the location tab. It shows as
\\Server\UserName\Vista !
It will NOT let me change it.

Can anybody tell me why and how I can overcome it ?

TIA

Thanks for the reply
The user does not have admin rights.

I only tried to type new name field, field is locked - am not on site (its saturday afternoon in australia) so can't repeat excercise right now, however I dont think move was available. Will have to confirm that next week.

No error message, just unable to overtype location

Thanks again

Thanks I'll try it when I get back on site. Will post result.
Any idea why it generated that location in the first place ?

Hi again Tepid

Tried with admin rights, no luck. noticed that Restore Default, Move & Find target buttons not even visible.

Checked on the administrator account & its location is set correctly, with options to alter all enabled. The administrator does not have a home folder set in its properties whereas the users do, & this is where their my documents location is set to. Wondered if this is related to problem.

Set up new user with no home page & bingo problem solved.

Removed home page from one of my original users & tried again - guess what - still goes to old (incorrect) location - any thoughts.

Thanks Win7

Thats what I normally do. The users home folder in their profile page is set to U: and is in location \\servername\username.

With an XP user, the my documents location is unchanged when you join the domain, however we change it to U: - no problems.

The difference with Win 7 appears to be that it creates a folder called documents in the home folder, then takes that same location for the my documents location & does not allow you to change it - is this correct ?
