Post subject:  Remove program folder (redirected)
Hello all,
Love the software and almost have it how I want but am having problems removing the programs folder as in the redirected one in user settings group policy.



The one I set in classic shell group policy works perfectly however I noticed when a user signs in, the programs folder is automatically created and cant find a way to disable/hide the folder.

Thanks all

**edit**
I just redirected the folder to a local location and changed permissions to write deny and it stopped the folder from appearing. Worst case I will drop some useful links in there and it will be fine but better to hide it if possible.

Which folders have you redirected exactly - the Programs folder and/or the Start Menu folder? Have you redirected both the per-user folder and the All Users one or only one? How have you redirected them - using Windows folder redirection policies or Classic Shell settings?

The folder in question is located in GP: User config, Windows settings, folder redirection, start menu. If I dont redirect it or do its the same result where the folder in the picture appears.
I have found a temp fix where I direct it to a read only folder so it can not create its programs folder but would be nice to hide it.

The one I would like to keep (the bottom programs folder in the pic) is found in classic shell's group policy under classic start menu, programs folder.

Download the Classic Shell Utility from here: http://www.classicshell.net/downloads/
Run it, save a log file (the first option) and send it to me
