Pinned items and Recent opened Programs


hi experts,

we using roaming profile , folder redirection users in our domain accessing terminal servers (windows server 2008-r2). we changed network share used profile , folder redirection. linux based fs (in past windows fs in cluster). every thing migrated (profiles, application data, documents, desktop, start menu) users complaining lost pinned items task bar , recent opened programs start menu.

after migration, if open new application, displayed in start menu expected. if pin new item in task bar its, working items opened in past (windows fs) , not merged after migration (linux fs).

i tried search regarding problem , got know these items written in registry too.

in past fs share \\servername\z\home\%username%\(profile, documents, start menu, desktop, app data)-windows fs

now share path \\servername\homes\%username%\(profile, documents, start menu, desktop, app data)-linux fs

hi,

 

you may configure folder redirection redirect following folder keep recent opened programs history.

 

%appdata%\microsoft\windows\recent

 

after that, write script migrate following registries without changes users.

 

hkey_current_user\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\explorer\shell folders\recent

hkey_current_user\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\explorer\user shell folders\recent

 

for pinned icons, may try write script migrate content of following location , registry without changes users.

 

%appdata%\microsoft\internet explorer\quick launch\user pinned\taskbar

hkey_current_user\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\explorer\taskband
