Some portions must still be copied back and forth before the desktop appears so that these folders are available if the network-redirected folders go down. The Windows shell becomes very unstable if the link is lost in this situation. Additionally, I observed these issues when testing on Windows 10 XenDesktop So at that particular moment in time, we appeared stuck with Folder Redirection as an integral part of our deployments.
Folder Redirection is often seen in conjunction with Offline Files, mainly for laptop users. Offline Files offer a way to cache folders especially those ones that have been redirected locally to the device for the situations when the redirected shares are not available. Anyone who has ever used Offline Files may well be familiar with the fact that it is an absolutely godawful piece of technology. Again, in the absence of anything better, it is quite usual to see Offline Files in use in the enterprise.
Unfortunately, Folder Redirection can, in some situations and configurations, bring a plethora of problems of its own. This folder is where generally application data and configuration items are written to. Redirection of this folder can cause application instability, poor performance, network overheads — a whole gamut of different issues.
Mainly, it causes performance issues as the Desktop is constantly refreshed across the network when interacted with. Redirecting one particular folder — the Desktop in this instance — has become a straight trade-off between good logon times, or good in-session performance. The point I am trying to make is that Folder Redirection was brought along to solve some problems that we had, but over the years has simply brought us other ones.
Redirecting any folders with lots of files in soon becomes an issue Start Menu, Recent Items, Cookies, etc. AppData redirection is a whole problem in itself — only last week I saw a Citrix installer crashing repeatedly until we stopped AppData redirection. Shawn Bass, Aaron Parker and Helge Klein did a series of blog articles and presentations a few years ago regarding AppData redirection in particular , which should give you some further reading on it should you wish to do so.
We got around these issues by adopting different methods for retaining AppData and other high-volume folders. And to an extent many did, but there were always overheads of cost, infrastructure, maintenance and resource associated with them. And we still leaned on traditional Folder Redirection to some extent — we simply changed how we dealt with the more problematic examples of this. We have used Folder Redirection as a crutch for a long time for the problems of roaming, and combined it with Offline Files when users are mobile.
What we need is a different solution, or at the very least a change in the traditional approaches. But that just raises other problems — such as the Desktop one — which result in us pushing more back towards the storage of data in the profile, and even with tech such as streaming, just exacerbates the issues with logons and logoffs and other KPIs.
Generally, we are vacillating between the problems of the roaming profile, or the problems of redirected folders, or the problems of managing a third-party solution. Is it time for a root-and-branch rethink of what we are trying to solve? So specifically, what is it we want to do? Taking the approach of Marcus Aurelius — what is my goal in itself? Avoid the issues associated with large profiles or profiles that have many files Avoid the performance impact of redirection on folders like Desktop, Start Menu and AppData Save all the user settings that are required Reduce any storage overhead Support mobile users, preferably without a reliance on Offline Files.
Low-volume are folders that are accessed infrequently, usually data areas, so are typically read or written at the user request and only refreshed when the user accesses them through an application or folder. Examples of low-volume areas are Documents, Pictures, Videos, Music, etc.
Delineating folders in this way allows you to deal with them differently.
