Many causes are creating problems..... Redirection, Start Menu and one Desktop to Windows Server 2008 file server with Access-based enumeration installed and configured. On Share u would set read and execute rights and permissions for users and Full Control rights to administrators, then create groups in Active Directory with meaningful names for Applications or groups that u need more granular control over. Assigning these groups Read and Execute rights on the specific folders and shortcuts, while removing all other users will make sure the shortcuts and folders only appear for members of the Application groups in Active Directory. OR you may do like that, Local Computer PolicyUser ConfigurationAdministrative TemplatesStart Menu & TaskbarRemove common program groups from Start Menu.... This can be set by GPO also by, User Configuration-> Windows Settings -> Folder Redirections. When configure via GPO, take care of permissions and its look like.... Share Permissions: Everyone – Full Control Administrators – Full Control System – Full Control NTFS Permissions: Everyone - Create Folder/Append Data (if u have) Everyone - List Folder/Read Data (if u have) Everyone - Read Attributes (if u have) Everyone - Traverse Folder/Execute File (if u have) CREATOR OWNER - Full Control System - Full Control Domain Admins - Full Control And for Windows 7.... Make sure Force classic Start Menu, Remove All Programs list from the Start menu and Remove common program groups from Start Menu are all set to disable. NOTE: If you are using mandatory profiles and desktop redirection together, they don't work well together, make sure to turn off one of them. One more thing you should take care, somewhere need indexing turned on with server 2008 to have the folder redirecting, this is assuming that making the Windows 7 documents library redirect to a network folder for storage. Hope it may help you.... if not get back here!
