Change My Documents Location

[Carlos Rodrigues]

Hello!

I'm trying to change all users' My Documents folder to a specific
location by using Folder Redirection within a policy. When the domain
was initially created (prior to the users being created) I did this and
it worked, however now the change in path is getting ignored. Is there
another way to change this, even if it requires something to be run for
each user? (Like from logon.bat or something)
