my documents redirection for every new user

[stoof]

Hi ,

We have the following issue, on windows 7 enterprise 64 bit.
Every new local user that is created on the machine, the My Documents folder is redirected to d:\users\%username%\
I have checked the local policies, and none of them is enabled.
Then i checked the registry and found under this key :
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders

the following :

Personal
d:\users\%username%\Documents


so i changed to

%userprofile%\Documents


and still if i create a new user, the documents folder is created on the D:\Users


Any ideas anyone?

thanks

Wait.. Im confused. You DONT want the user to have a new Documents folder? Or it is just creating the documents folder in the wrong place? Whats the problem? hah.

Hello Stoof, and welcome to Seven Forums.

Did you restart the computer after making the registry changes to apply them so not to have them created at the D: location?

 

[stoof]

hi Brink, yes i have restarted the machine after i made the change in the registry, still no luck :-(

@kirsch i want the documents directory created on c:\users\%username%\documents (like it is by default)

Have you tried changing the reg setting to c:\users\%username%\documents instead of %userprofile%\documents?
