RE: Roaming Profiles in Win 7

by JLogan3o13 · 7 years ago In reply to Roaming Profiles

Unfortunately, since Vista and Win 7 uses a different profile structure, this is not a configuration issue but a planned feature from Microsoft. The use of roaming profiles when switching between XP and Vista/7 is unsupported, thus the Server will automatically create the V2 profile, and pull over what it can.

If this is absolutely necessary, it can be accomplished through either some scripting options or low-cost third-party tools. However, the suggestion from Microsoft is to have a homogeneous network and not mix client Operating Systems.

RE: Redirection

by devand · 7 years ago In reply to Roaming Profiles

If you have it set to redirect to the user's mapped U drive, and that drive map is specified through AD, Group Policy won't see it upon first logon because GP runs before the drive is actually mapped (I'm pretty sure anyways). You're better off creating a share on the server and mapping to that.
