  • What will happened if there is no connectivity to server ? after login what will happens? will user can be able to access folder from his local windows desktop ?

  • Is it better to set the target folder for this from a SAN iSCSI storage location?
    if so what will be faster, using iSCSI on Layer 2 Fiber mode or maybe just on an M.2 Drive on the DC host.
    Which is also better for security and latency due to being on TCP layer or bound to Mac Address if using Fiber Mode.

  • This helped me with my Administrator assignments, thank you very much! I had some similar setup through my course instructions but they were vague.

  • Do you have to run dhcp and dns servers on the domain server for folder redirection to work? Does the server have to have a static IP?

  • Thank you so much! I do not understand why my University cannot do this type of videos for their students. You are a life saver! again Thank you!

  • Which is the best to use in medium enterprise set up? Folder redirection, Work folders or Home Folders? Can u explain their differences?

  • As an administrator you should configure that you have access to each user folder in Folder redirection. I would uncheck "grant the user exclusive rights to (folder). But overall very good explanation. When client PC loses sync to FolderRediection- sometimes its very difficult to get it back in sync.

  • I love these instructions. And his accent 🙂 Anyway, simple and clear. Thank you! You're a timesaver!

  • Wny don't you have create files/write data permission? Isn't that necessary for the user to create new files or write existing files?

  • Thank you, a fantastic tutorial! However, it did not work for my administrator, maybe because my GPO is linked to an OU.

  • Hi MSFT WebCast. i need information on how to properly uninstall the folder redirection configuration in the event you dont want to use it any more within your domain.
