Question : Folder Redirection

I have a citrix environment running PS 4.5. I recently rebuilt group policy for the terminal servers and for any user who logs into them. Part of the GPO is desktop and my documents redirection. It works through Citrix perfect but it still affects "some" users who log into their local desktops. Their local desktops share the same redirection policy as their Citrix desktops. How do I break the redirection and allow for the local desktop to remain independent from their Citrix desktop?

Any help would be great.

Answer : Folder Redirection

Hi,  A few tips for you:
You may want to look into security filtering on the Group Policy so that it only applies to the Terminal Server computer objects. You can find these settings within GPMC.msc | click on the policy and look on the scope tab.
 Or
You can block group policy inheritance on your Terminal Server environment and set up a series of new policies how you like it for the Terminal Servers.  Enable Loop Back policy processing so that your user configuration policies still apply.  You will need to look into the Merge vs Replace setting for Loop back policy processing (you can use group policy modelling within GPMC.msc to identify what settings get applied on your workstations).  

To troubleshoot  the workstations that have desktop redirection applied you can run an RSOP.msc or GPResult /Z so that you can see the policies that are getting applied and identify which policy is applying the setting you need to fix.
