Hello,
The problem, not a big issue but still, when i log on to workstations the profile works fine, it loads and saves; theam, taskbars toolbars, Startmenu quick panel on the left, list in IE address drop down list.
On some computers this dose not happen when the same user logs on; you get win clasic theam, no desktop, the left side of the strat menu is blank there is no list in IE address drop down list.
Also during the time that user is loged on nothing like that saves, ifyou type an a address in the IE addres bar, then click the drop down list it is empty, same in RUN.
BUT if the user creats a folder on the desktop - it dose save and roams on all pcs with that the user.
ANy help
Thanks

Is there any computer config. group policies set on those computers that will cause any of that to happen?

Maybe its a conflict with a cached local profile that was created before the roaming profile was created. Maybe try deleting the user's local profile on that workstation, then try logging in as them again to see if the roaming profile work afterwards.

Assume that I already did an Internet search.
