There's a few things going on behind the scenes when I virtualize someone's desktop. I make a few changes to their user setup to better accomodate the virtualization--I make sure that roaming profiles is turned on, and I redirect the Desktop, Application Data, and My Documents folders to the user's home share, rather than to their profile.
I've done this before, though, so when I noticed lately that I could create an icon or a file somewhere in these folders and it *didn't* show up, something seemed strange. Turns out it's the fact that I'm also putting these onto a DFS share that's causing the issue.
But, just like I said in my last post, someone else has run into this before; in fact, Microsoft has it documented already:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;823291
That doesn't help, though, once the user's roaming profile has been turned on (unless I want to go to each user and make that registry change--yikes!). So someone else was kind enough to post a Group Policy adm file for making the change to all users.
