Hi,

>why is folder redirection not working.

You can choose not to have the contents of the original my documents
copied to the new location. It is in the options set in Folder
Redirection. Under Settings tab, untick both.

Otherwise delete the desktop.ini file that seems to be sitting in the
users My Documents that is causing the problem.

Cheers,

Lara
