Redirect My Documents

[Jane T.]

In the Help and support it says:

=========================
To redirect My Documents to the home directory
Open a Group Policy object that is linked to the site,
domain, or organizational unit that contains the users
whose My Documents folders you want to redirect.
In the console tree, double-click Folder Redirection to
display My Documents.

Where?

policy name Policy
User Configuration
Windows Settings
Folder Redirection
My Documents

=========================

HOWEVER:
when I go to the Group Policy Window and from that to User
Configuration - Windows Settings, then I DON'T see any
folder named "Folder Redirection". Does anyone have any
idea how that can be changed? I really would like to
redirect "My Documents" to a more sensible partition than
C:/.

Hi Jane,

To change the location of My Documents, right-click on the My Documents icon
and select properties. On the target tab, mention the full path of the new
location that you desire and click 'move'.
