While I haven't found a way to log who is doing it, I've found that it
usually happens when people double click on a folder in explorer and
move their mouse slightly between clicks. We're still small enough that
I have a pretty good idea who the culprits are, so I just set these
registry entries for them in the login script:

HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\DragHeight=20

HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\DragWidth=20

 

The means that the need to move the mouse at least 20 pixels to activate
a drag/drop operation. It seems to work here.

Subject: Logging when a user moves a specific folder

 

 

I have a client who is telling me that some folders on their server are
disappearing. The folder structure is this:

 

-2006

      -LastName,FirstName

 

-2007

      -LastName,FirstName

 

-2008

      -LastName,FirstName

 

The folders that disappear are the LastName,FirstName folders. If I
search the server, I'll find the folders in the wrong parent folder or a
different LastName,FirstName folder. I am sure that one of the users is
moving the folders. I can't lock down the folders because they do need
to move data on occasion. My question, is there any way to turn on
logging to catch who is moving these folders? 3rd party software maybe?
The server is running Windows Server 2003 fully patched

Thanks
