Not sure if you have found a fix for this or not. the issue is with a file 
called DESKTOP.INI in the root of the users home directory. if you compare the 
file of a "document" folder and one of a regular folder you will see a 
difference in what is contained in the files.

There are 2 fixes.

1.        You can delete the desktop.ini file and it will rebuild correctly

2.       We have a script that looks at the file and then makes the 
corrections. We run it only when we notice a lot of document folders.
We believe that the issue is with using a terminal session or RDP to connect to 
your network. Generally once it is fixed for a user we do not have to fix that 
user again.

That could be it! I will check.

Thanks,

I have seen this but only when the user sets up offline files to use the root 
of their share for their My Documents.

that only happens when RDP'ing in from a Vista box.  When the name column is 
set to full width (usually by double-clicking the title bar) many of the names 
show up funny.  If you narrow the name column down in the view, it shows the 
folder names correctly.  Can't remember if it was discussed on this list or 
another last year.

Come to think of it, I used to see this all the time, and have not had it 
happen since reinstalling my machine on W7.

I am having the same issue on a windows 2003 domain.  I have not had time to 
troubleshoot, but am interested to know if one of my Jr's made a change to the 
AD.

Hi,

We just migrated a Client to Windows 2008 SBS from Windows 2003 SBS. AD is used 
to point home drive U: to
\\servername\users\%username%

Now when I look in the "users" folder I see this
[cid:[email protected]]

Behind those folders that appear as "Documents" in the list are actually users' 
folders. How can I make them appear with the actual user's name?

Thanks,
Peter
