    Windows cannot access \\domainController\Users\user\Desktop


    I'm migrating my AD domain and users to a new domain. I used ForensiT's Profwiz to migrate the users' profiles. I've migrated two user so far. One thing the ForensiT tool does not do is update the registry to the new domain name. For that, I used a tool: registryFinder which let's me find/replace registry values. I've replaced all mail.hprs.local old DC name with dc1.hprs.locl new name.For the first user I migrated, that worked, no problem. For the 2nd user it does not appear to have worked. I get the message: "Windows cannot access \\mail.hprs.local\Users\mark\Desktop" redirected folder

    Current active users that are friends

    The other reason I suggested this is that users can add characters to their username that are not alphanumeric (e.g. user*). This confuses things somewhat when looking at the list.

  3. Desktop wallpaper for new users

    Hi Alaa,

    Setting default users lets you specify the wallpaper on user's desktops and prevents other users from changing the image or its presentation. You can check these steps on how to set wallpapers from all users:

    • Type run on the search bar and press Enter.
    • On the window, type gpedit.msc and click OK.
    • Locate and click Administrative Templates.
    • Select Desktop > Desktop > Desktop Wallpaper.
    • Tick Enabled, and name your wallpaper.
    • Select Apply and click OK.

    After performing the steps above, you may restart your PC.

    Let us know the outcome. We will be glad to assist you.
