Virtualization by Davis: “Saving files from a remote app. (App-V)” plus 2 more

Virtualization by Davis: “Saving files from a remote app. (App-V)” plus 2 more


Saving files from a remote app. (App-V)

Posted: 11 Jul 2012 12:43 AM PDT

We use App-V on 2008 Terminal server. Whenever an APP-V client gets the save dialog box to save a file from a remote app, they see there own profile folder when the save as dialog box shows up. This is the profile folder on the terminal server(2008) and ofcourse we do not want them to save files there. We did manage to block access to the user profile subfolders(they get the access denied error), but whatever I do, they are still able to save files to the root of there profile folder and there seem no way to prevent this. I found an AD policy that say's: "Prevent users from adding files to the root of their users files folder". But this does not do the trick and in the description of this setting it already say's that it does not prevent a user from saving files to the root of their profile.....Why would you ever want a user to save a file in their profile?? I just dont get this weirdness...

I also did check the Placesbar registry adjustment and tried that but this also does not prefent a user from saving files on the terminal server. Also the hide drives policy does not prevent this. (these were given as a solution to other users with the same problem, but its not a solution at all).

The ideal situation ofcourse would be to only have them see "my computer" with some network locations such as a "home" or "department" drive maping in the save as dialog box. Is there anybody out there who knows how to do this?
