Remove Links My Music / My Pictures

[Boris Henn]

Hello,
is there any way to remove the links for 'My Music / My
Pictures'?

We are using Folder Redirection and if a user logs on a
new pc there were additional links created named 'My
Music (1)' and so on.

Does anyone knows a trick?

Regards
Boris
