Setting Up Folder Redirection
There are two ways to set up folder redirection:
Redirect special folders to one location for everyone in the site, domain, or OU.
Redirect special folders to a location according to security group membership.
Choose one of the following options in the Policy Removal area (the default setting is recommended):
Q Leave The Folder In The New Location When Policy Is Removed, to leave the folder in its new location even when the GPO no longer applies. This option is enabled by default.
rj Redirect The Folder Back To The Local Userprofile Location When Policy Is Removed, to move the folder back to its local user profile location when the GPO no longer applies.
Important See the “Policy Removal Considerations” section of this lesson for details on selecting a policy removal option.
9. Choose one of the following options (available for the My Documents folder only) in the My Pictures Preferences area:
U Make My Pictures A Subfolder Of My Documents, to redirect My Pictures automatically to remain a subfolder of My Documents. This option is enabled by default and is recommended.
Do Not Specify Administrative Policy For My Pictures, to remove My Pictures as a subfolder of My Documents and have the user profile determine the location of My Pictures. With this option, the location of My Pictures is not dictated by MCTS Group Policy and a shortcut takes the place of the My Pictures folder in My Documents.

Configuring Computers and Servers to Use Offline Files After you configure the sharepoint, you must configure users’ computers and servers to use Offline Files. You can configure users’ computers and servers to use Offline Files manually in the Offline Files tab in the Folder Options dialog box for each client computer. Or, you can configure users’ computers and servers to use Offline Files by setting policies in Administrative Templates/Network/Offline Files in both the Computer Configuration and CCNA exam User Configuration nodes. This section provides the procedure for manually configuring computers and servers to use Offline Files.
