    Folder Redirection in 2003 GPO editor

    When I open the Group Policy Editor in 2003 Server and navigate to User
    Settings | Windows Settings
    Folder Redirection is missing.
    Any ideas on how to get it to appear?

    Either you accidentally removed system.adm from your Administrative
    Templates, or your copy was somehow overwritten. Right-click on
    Administrative Templates, select Add/Remove Templates, and verify that
    system.adm is listed. If not, Add it. If so, then your copy has been
    corrupted. You can download original copies of the Windows adm files from:
    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en

    Choose either admFiles_WindowsServer2003.msi or
    admFiles_WindowsServer2003SP1.msi depending on whether you are using SP1.
    After installing, go back into Add/Remove Templates and remove the existing
    system.adm, then click Add... and browse to the install directory to select
    the system.adm from there.

    Thanks Ronny. System.Admin was not there I then added it and it worked.

    Same problem

    Hi Guys,

    I have the same problem with the missing Folder Redirection in GPO.

    I have tried the advice given here about the system.admin, and the one about re-registering fde.dll as recommended by MS, but still nothing....

    Any other ideas will be hugely appreciated!

    Hi - since you haven't quoted the original message, it's hard for anyone to
    follow this. Please try posting a new message with all the pertinent info,
    and I'm sure someone will be able to help. Include symptoms, and any KB
    articles, etc.
