I mean I have used Group Policy in Windows Active Directory Domain to create a
policy that redirects everyone's appdata folder to the same location, also
called roaming.

The reason I do this is that we have terminal servers at work and a lot of data
is stored at appdata, if we did not redirect appdata it would be copied to the
terminal server every time they logon witch give a longer logontime.

This is how I have set up the redirect policy.
Windows server 2008 R2 -> Group Policy Management -> New Policy -> User
configuration\Policies\Windows Settings\Folder Redirection\AppData(Roaming):

Target:
Setting = Basic - Redirect everyone's folder to the same location.
Target folder location = Create a folder for each user under the root path.
Root path = \\server\users

Settings (enabled):
On - Move the contents of AppData(Roaming) to the new location.
On - Also apply redirection policy to Windows 2000, Windows 2000 Server,
Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 operating systems.
On - Leave the folder in the new location when policy is removed.


Ex. For user Clair, this folder will be redirected to:
\\server\users\Clair\Application data
