We recently migrated all users home drive data to a new file server. In updating the AD accounts we selected all users with a home drive on the old server and entered \\server\share\%username% Visual inspection in AD shows that these settings mapped correctly, but when a user opens the home drive in My Computer it opens the root of the share. Would the multiple select and edit have caused this, or has something else happened that anyone might have experienced. Thanks in advance.
