Roaming Profile is roaming AppData\Local and AppData\LocalLow including Outlook OST file

Hi everyone.
Well my problem with Roaming Profiles here is the AppData\Local and AppData\LocalLow directories are roaming when I believe they should not. I see these folders are kept from roaming by default within the policy. I am concerned
because within the Local directory are the OST files. Some are large and I do not want them to roam. I can trick the workstation and configure Outlook to Online mode only and that works but what about all the other directories within Local and LocalLow?
I suspect since we had XP previous to 7, the old folder structure may still be in effect somewhere but am not certain. Others I’ve spoken with have seen this behavior but I have not seen a solution quite yet.
This post (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/1c618a22-b48a-43ca-81cc-64836c058207/appdatalocal-and-locallow-following-roaming-profile?forum=winserverGP) is close
to my problem but the reason it does not help me is I have created test new test users that have never had Windows XP and started out as new Win7 images. I placed the new users in a particular OU and applied a new folder redirection policy to that OU. There
is still a Default Domain Policy in effect for the entire forest but there is nothing in there (that I can see) redirecting any folders. The new policy I linked to the new OU redirects a few folders (music, pictures, desktop) to c:\temp so those do not roam.
Everything works fine except the AppData\local and AppData\LocalLow directories are roaming. The registry entry referenced in the above post shows everything to be fine, yet the
the AppData\local and AppData\LocalLow directories still roam.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
and under ExcludeProfileDirs, type REG_SZ, the value is
AppData\Local;AppData\LocalLow;$Recycle.Bin
So now I am stuck. I will scour the Default Domain Policy again but quite frankly, there isn't much in there. Anyone have any other suggestions
as to what to look for in this case?
Thanks!

Hi,
Based on your description, we can check Applications and Services Logs in Event Viewer to see if some related services got crashed.
Besides, we can install the following hotfix on a troubled computer to see if it can fix the issue.

  • Cannot open your default e-mail folders. You must connect to Microsoft Exchange with the current profile before you can synchronize your folders with your Outlook data file (.ost)

    Fresh installation of Exchange Server 2013 on Windows Server 2012.
    Our first test account cannot access their email via Outlook but can access fine through OWA. The following message appears - "Cannot open your default e-mail folders. You must connect to Microsoft Exchange with the current profile before you can synchronize
    your folders with your Outlook data file (.ost)" is displayed.
    If I turn off cached Exchange mode, setting the email account to not
    cache does not resolve the issue and i get a new error message - "Cannot open your default e-mail folders. The file (path\profile name).ost is not an Outlook data file (.ost). Very odd since it creates its own .ost file when you run it for the first
    time.
    I cleared the appdata local Outlook folder and I tested on a new laptop that has never connected to Outlook, same error message on any system.
    Microsoft Exchange RPC Client Access service is running.
    No warning, error or critical messages in the eventlog, it's like the healthiest server alive.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. I haven't encountered this issue with previous versions of Exchange.

    So it looks like a lot of people are having this issue and seeing how Exchange 2013 is still new (relatively to the world) there isn't much data around to answer this. I've spend ALOT of time trying to figure this out.
    Here is the answer. :) - No I don't know all but I'm going to try to give you the most reasonable answer to this issue, in a most logical way.
    First thing I did when I was troubleshooting this issue is that I ignored Martina Miskovic's suggestion for Step4 http://technet.microsoft.com/library/jj218640(EXCHG.150)because it didn't make sense to me because I was trying to connect
    Outlook not outside the LAN but actually inside. However, Martina's suggestion does fix the issue if it's applied in the correct context.
    This is where the plot thickens (it's stew). She failed to mention that things like SSL (which I configure practically useless - anyone who ever worked in a business environment where the owner pretty much trusts anyone in the company, otherwise they don't
    work there - very good business practice in my eyes btw, can confirm that...) are some sort of fetish with Microsoft lately. Exchange 2013 was no exception.
    In exchange 2003, exchange 2007 and exchange 2010 - you could install it and then go to outlook and set it up. And when outlook manual Microsoft Exchange profile would ask you for server name, you would give it and give the name of the person who you setting
    up - as long as machine is on the domain, not much more is needed. IT JUST WORKS! :) What a concept, if the person already on premises of the business - GIVE HIM ACCESS. I guess that was too logical for Microsoft. Now if you're off premises you can use things
    like OutlookAnywhere - which I might add had their place under that scenario.
    In Exchange 2013, the world changed. Ofcourse Microsoft doesn't feel like telling it in a plain english to people - I'm sure there is an article somewhere but I didn't find it. Exchange 2013 does not support direct configuration of Outlook like all of it's
    previous versions. Did you jaw drop? Mine did when I realized it. So now when you are asked for your server name in manual outlook set up and you give it Exchange2013.yourdomain.local - it says cannot connect to it. This happens because ALL - INTERNAL AND
    EXTERNAL connection are now handled via OutlookAnywhere. You can't even disable that feature and have it function the reasonable way.
    So now the question still remains - how do you configure outlook. Well under server properties there is this nice section called Outlook anywhere. You have a chance to configure it's External and Internal address. This is another thing that should be logical
    but it didn't work that way for me. When I configured the external address different from the internal - it didn't work. So I strongly suggest you get it working with the same internal address first and then ponder how you want to make it work for the outside
    users.
    Now that you have this set up you have to go to virtual directories and configure the external and internal address there - this is actually what the Step 4 that Martina was refering to has you do.
    Both external and internal address are now the same and you think you can configure your outlook manually - think again. One of the most lovely features of Outlook Anywhere, and the reason why I had never used it in the past is that it requires a TRUSTED
    certificate.
    See so it's not that exchange 2013 requires a trusted certificate - it's that exchange 2013 lacks the feature that was there since Windows 2000 and Exchange 5.5.
    So it's time for you to install an Active Direction Certificate Authority. Refer to this wonderful article for exact steps - http://careexchange.in/how-to-install-certificate-authority-on-windows-server-2012/
    Now even after you do that - it won't work because you have to add the base private key certificate, which you can download now from your internal certsrv site, to Default Domain Policy (AND yes some people claim NEVER mess with the Default Domain Policy,
    always make an addition one... it's up to you - I don't see direct harm if you know what you want to accomplish) see this: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc738131%28v=ws.10%29.aspx if you want to know exact steps.
    This is the moment of ZEN! :) Do you feel the excitement? After all it is your first time. Before we get too excited lets first request and then install the certificate to actual Exchange via the gui and assign it to all the services you can (IIS, SMTP and
    there is a 3rd - I forgot, but you get the idea).
    Now go to your client machine where you have the outlook open, browse to your exchange server via https://exchang2013/ in IE and if you don't get any certificate errors - it's good. If you do run on hte client and the server: gpupdate /force This will refresh
    the policy. Don't try to manually install the certificate from Exchange's website on the client. If you wanna do something manually to it to the base certificate from the private key but if you added it to the domain policy you shouldn't have to do it.
    Basically the idea is to make sure you have CA and that CA allows you to browse to exchange and you get no cert error and you can look at the cert and see that's from a domain CA.
    NOW, you can configure your outlook. EASY grasshoppa - not the manual way. WHY? Cause the automatic way will now work. :) Let it discover that exachange and populate it all - and tell you I'm happy! :)
    Open Outlook - BOOM! It works... Was it as good for you as it was for me?
    You may ask, why can't I just configure it by manual - you CAN. It's just a nightmare. Go ahead and open the settings of the account that got auto configed... How do you like that server name? It should read something like [email protected]
    and if you go to advanced and then connection tab - you'll see Outlook Anywhere is checked as well. Look at the settings - there is the name of the server, FQDN I might add. It's there in 2 places and one has that Mtdd-something:Exchange2013.yourdomain.local.
    So what is that GUID in the server name and where does it come from. It's the identity of the user's mailbox so for every user that setting will be different but you can figure it out via the console on the Exchange server itself - if you wish.
    Also a note, if your SSL certs have any trouble - it will just act like outlook can't connect to the exchange server even though it just declines the connection cause the cert/cert authority is not trusted.
    So in short Outlook Anywhere is EVERYWHERE! And it has barely any gui or config and you just supposed to magically know that kind of generic error messages mean what... Server names are now GUIDs of the [email protected] - THAT MAKES PERFECT
    SENSE MICROSOFT! ...and you have to manage certs... and the only place where you gonna find the name of the server is inside the d*** Outlook Anywhere settings in the config tab, un it's own config button - CAN WE PUT THE CONFIG ANY FURTHER!
    Frustrating beyond reason - that should be Exchange's new slogan...
    Hope this will help people in the future and won't get delete because it's bad PR for Microsoft.
    PS
    ALSO if you want to pick a fight with me about how SSL is more secure... I don't wanna hear it - go somewhere else...

  • VerboseToZip failed, and does not include all required file.

    Hi,
    I've been trying to use verboseToZip to produce smaller weblogic.jar file. This is because the application is going to be distributable via JWS.
    I followed the step as provided in weblogic webpage. But I got some error message.
    1. "Unable to find class file named 'com.sun.corba.se.impl.orbutil.GetPropertyAction'."
    I then found out that this class is located in
    C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_06\lib\rt.jar
    So I included this JAR file in my classpath, and run verboseToZip again. Seems passing that error message now, but I got another one:
    2. "Unable to find class file named 'sun.reflect.GeneratedSerializationConstructorAccessor25'."
    This occurs with every "sun.reflect.GeneratedSerializationConstructorAccessorXX"
    So I edited the classList file, and remove all occurence of "GeneratedSerializationConstructorAccessor"
    By the way, the line in the classList file is:
    [Loaded sun.reflect.GeneratedSerializationConstructorAccessor25 from __JVM_DefineClass__]
    I then ran verboseToZip again, and got another error:
    3. "Unable to find class file named 'sun.reflect.GeneratedMethodAccessor9'."
    Same as before, I removed all occurrence of that line.
    [Loaded sun.reflect.GeneratedMethodAccessor9 from __JVM_DefineClass__]
    Ran verboseToZip again.. yet another error
    4. "Unable to find class file named 'java.awt.$Proxy0'."
    Did the same thing, ran verboseToZip again...and another error!!!! (this is an awful process for just producing the slim down version of weblogic.jar)
    5. "Unable to find class file named 'sun.reflect.GeneratedConstructorAccessor4'."
    Again, same thing.. removed it, and run verboseToZip again. Finally... it ran without error. BUT.....
    the generated file does not contain all the class I need..
    for example, it does not have "weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory". Hence, all of this awful process is really a waste.
    Has anyone ever experienced this before? I mean, it should be a straightforward process without the need to remove all those lines, right?
    Thanks a lot for the helps!

  • You must connect to Microsoft Exchange with your current profile before you can synchronize your folders with your outlook data file (.ost).... OWA works but outlook 2013 does not, exchange server 2013 on Server standard 2012

    I have read a lot of articles and tried a lot of things, but I cannot get outlook to connect to my exchange server. This is a test environment, I have tried making my own certificate and signing it through my own CA to no avail. I have completely disabled
    windows firewall and stopped the service. I can ping between the two just fine by name or IP. I've tried not using cached mode, creating new profiles in outlook etc. I tried setting my CertPrincipalName to my FQDN in exchange powershell.
    I am not an expert with exchange at all, but I feel like this should work with little to no configuration, instead I've wasted days on this. Half of the articles I've read don't seem to have solutions, and the other half have solutions that are not working
    for me.
    I can access OWA and send emails on a client computer through OWA with no problems.
    I am running a test domain on the same network as my current exchange 2003/sbs 2003 active environment, I don't know why this would be an issue, but if it is I cannot figure out why. The only thing I can see holding me back right now is not having a signed
    certificate from digicert etc, and an official internet domain set up, but I don't think either of those things matter in my situation. 
    Any help is greatly appreciated and I'll gladly provide any other information requested to solve this issue, thank you.

  • User profiles getting changed to "local"

    We have users who have had a user policy with DLU active via their OU for years. The policy also specifies that their roaming profile is being stored in their home directory, which it is.
    Due to system changes we needed to change the OU policy to a No-DLU one and then associate the DLU policy to individuals. We changed the search policy to look at Object before Container.
    Now we are getting reports of users whose local workstation profile has gotten changed from Roaming to Local and the Roaming radio button is grayed out so we can't even change it back.
    Ideas on how this happened and how to fix it?

  • RUP AppData\Local and AppData\LocalLow are Roaming and from everything I read, these DO NOT Roam by Default

    I guess that's it in a nutshell.
    From the test GPO I created, I explicitly tell the policy NOT to allow these two directories to roam but they continue to roam. We did have XP at one time but now everything is Windows 7 and even the new profiles show the V2 as the extension of the folder
    name. 
    Main reason we don't want these folders to roam is because of the amount of data in these folders including OST files which takes up a lot for some users.
    I just can't figure it out. I have a Brandy New GPO with a test OU linked to it so that leads me to the Default Domain Policy for the forest but there is basically nothing set in this. Just a few security items. I can list if you'd like to see. And I have
    a couple of test user VMs that I am using that reside in this test OU. But nothing I try works. Local and LocalLow continue to roam to the network profile folder.
    Is there anything I can look at that  I may not have looked at yet?
    Thanks. This is frustrating. I want to dump the entire lot of RUP's...

  • "where does firefox 'profiles' end up in Windows 7? I see there are duplicate 'default'profiles in a local and roaming folders.

    I am moving my 'profile' from one netbook (which uses Windows XP) to a newer netbook (using Windows 7 starter). I have found two folders off the 'users/(my name)/local' and 'users/(my name)/roaming' that seem to be duplicate default profile folders. When I copy my profile from the older netbook, how do I know which folder to put it into.
    Hope this is clear

    The profile folder in the path '''''users/(my name)/local''''' only contains the Cache folder/files and the Safe Browsing information (''urlclassifier3.sqlite'') and a couple of other files. See information about "Cache" and "Offline Cache" under "4.1 Folders" in this article and how to find their location with '''about:cache''': http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox#Folders<br />

    You do NOT need to copy/transfer the files & folders in this path to your new notebook, as these files will be automatically rebuilt on the new notebook.

  • New domain, Roaming Profiles, Outlook 2010 gives error 'Your Outlook data file cannot be configured'.

    Hi there,
    I have recently setup a new domain, with a new domain controller and new exchange 2013 server.
    these are running on a cluster of 2 x hyper-v 2012r2 hosts. All VMs are running server 2012 r2.
    although I don't think that has any bearing on my issue.
    I have migrated all of my existing user machines to the new domain.
    We use roaming profiles.
    When a user logs into their PC for the first time, all is ok.
    when a user logs into a different machine (they log off of their first machine and then log into a second machine),
    they get the following error when opening outlook.
    'Your Outlook data file cannot be configured. C:\Users\%username%.domain\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\[email protected]'
    I can manually resolve this on each machine by doing one of the following.
    1. Before the user logs in, I log in as an administrator or browse to the pc from another machine create a folder in users called 'whatevertheuserssusernameis' (please note, I actually put in the user's username, ie OKIRWAN)
    when the user then logs in, their profile is created in %username%.domain instead of %username%.
    I believe this is the route of the problem, as when we added the new machines to the domain, and they logged in for the first time to their 'usual machine', there was already a folder in users with their username, so when we added to the new domain and logged
    in for the first time, it created a new folder called %username%.domain, however when the user logs into a pc they never have logged into before, it creates their profile in %username% but their roaming profile is looking for their OST in C:\Users\%username%.domain\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\[email protected].
    2. My second way around this is to go to control panel and mail and remove and recreate the users outlook profile.
    As I have 100 users, who move to various different machines, these manual options are not really viable.
    I have tried redirecting the OST file to c:\OST via group policy, this did not resolve the issue.
    All users are local admins on their machines.
    if I open outlook as administrator then it loads ok and creates the OST file in C:\Users\%username%.domain\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\[email protected].
    however if I close outlook and open it again without running as administrator I get the following error.
    File access is denied. You do not have the permission required to access the file C:\Users\%username%.domain\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\[email protected]. (even administrators on that PC have full access to that folder).
    All users are running outlook 2010.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Kind Regards

  • Mexico Roaming Data Charges and MiFi Hotspot Wireless

    Hi,
    I've been a Verizon customer for many years. I've used their PC Card and the unlimited data plan for my computer. I often travel near the border, Detroit, MI ... Niagara Falls, NY ... Laredo, TX ... Del Rio, TX ... El Paso, TX ... Nogales, AZ ... Calexico, CA ... San Diego, CA ... often. In the VZAccess Manager, the software used by the computer to connect, I have roaming disabled. Recently I upgraded to the MiFi and love the ability to have my laptop and my wife's connected at the same time. Recently near the Mexico border, the first time since having the MiFi, I checked my online Verizon usage and didn't see any mention of Mexico. There's nothing in any user manual about how to disable roaming specific to the MiFi, so I took that to mean that since the VZAccess Manager's settings controlled the MiFi while connected via USB, the settings also applied while wireless. They don't. I have since logged into the MiFi itself the way you would any WiFi router and there are no settings for roaming. I called Customer Service. They said there is no way to disable roaming when using it as a wireless hotspot ... and for me to "remember" to connect to just one computer with the USB cable. I intend to do that, but some people do forget ... traveling in an RV through El Paso ... just driving through ... you're close to the border. Be sure and remember to change your habits and stop using the MiFi as a wireless hotspot. I have charges for roaming in Mexico when I did not go to Mexico ... and did not know I was roaming.
    My billing cycle isn't for two more days. They couldn't assure me today that all charges would be reversed ... not until the billing cycle. I would certainly hope they reverse all charges ... even if in the hundreds ... and they ought to have better safeguards rather than charge you for roaming in Mexico when you're not in Mexico. There should be a pop-up, a warning, something a user has to do to authorize the connection ... when you're not even in Mexico, but instead you are in a US city with a strong Verizon signal. If it already has a good US signal, why would it switch to a roaming signal anyway, even if that roaming signal is slightly stronger? Why roam if a strong "home" signal is available anyway?
    I haven't been told that all my charges will be reversed ..., but at least I can alert you, if you use the MiFi as a HotSpot, it could switch to roaming even if you have a strong "home" signal and even if you have not crossed the US border. There is no way to stop this when using it as a HotSpot ... and you are not alerted at all unless you notice the light ... and have been told that a solid blue means roaming ... and you "remember" to check. I never noticed the blue light ... can only assume since the manual says so, that the light was blue at some point. But I never noticed it. I know now that light should be checked ... and I know now that the USB connection should be used anytime close to the border. I know that now. But people do forget. There should be some safeguard. VZAccess Manager has the ability to disable roaming and then you don't need to remember. The MiFi should should also have that ability. And actually, they shouldn't allow roaming when a home signal is available ... and even if you have roaming enabled and you cross a border, there should be a pop-up, flag, or alert of some kind where the user has to authorize the connection.
    Hope this helps someone avoid this. And I hope they reverse all the charges ... even if in the hundreds.
    Thank you,
    Tony McCanless

    Yep, I've been charged for it.  They still claim that with roaming turned off, apps will bypass this and use data anyway.
    "Some data applications and data functions including email updates will
    still work in the background even if the iPhone data roaming is switched
    off but not in direct physical use by you and this data roaming usage
    would appear as it is working on the device without any warning.
    The device could be using data that you don't necessarily know is being
    used, for example, embedded rich content in emails can generate
    significant volumes of data both ways. The email application is a likely
    source of most of that data usage."
    So it would seem that the "data roaming off" facility is a bit misleading, as it's not actually turning data roaming off.  Apparently.
    Thanks for the info Meg.

  • Is roaming in canada and global roaming activated already?

    Hi
    I have the $60 unlimited plan for each 30 days. We are planning to go to Canada and then for a cruise. I was curious if I need to activate the roaming for Canada and global (at sea: provider: cellular at sea) or it is already activated. I tried to do it online and it saying I am not the account manager.

    Verizon Wireless Customer Support wrote:
    Hi Ovaloffice - Sounds like you will be on an amazing trip! To confirm are you using prepaid or postpaid contract service? We can certainly discuss your roaming options once we get a better understanding of your account status.

    Hi YaleK_VZW,
    Thank you for the reply, Yes it is prepaid and there is no contract the plan is $60 (unlimited talk and text and 2GB of 3G data in USA).

  • Locale and "file not found" errors in pacman

  • Java 1.5.0_13 Cached HST files in %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment\host

    We're using Java 1.5.0_13 required for use of Oracle EBS.  After a recent failover test of Oracle EBS, users were not able to connect back to production after the DR testing was complete.
    I discovered when launching a form, Java was creating a file in %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment\host named 376bdaf3.hst.  Within this file is the IP address of our load balancer. 
    I believe this to be the cause of the connectivity issue.  Those uninvolved with the DR testing were not affected.   
    I could find any documentation on these files much less how to disable them.  Clearing Java cache doesn't seem to affect this file.  The only way I could prevent its creation is make the host directory read-only, which didn't cause any apparent problems.
    Has anyone faced this problem before?  Is there something we can do to disable this?

    Hi Andrew
    Apologies for creating the same thread in a number of different forums. My intention was to grab the attention from as many forum users as possible.
    Coming back to your solution, prior to your message, I didn't know anyting about Java Web Start. Having read your solution, I went back to Oracle's forum where the Forum's one of moderators Jan Carlin has blogged about the working of Oracle Forms with Java Web Start. [http://groundside.com/blog/JanCarlin.php|Forms and Java Web Start]
    Having gone through the features of JWS, JWS sounds promising. But Oracle has not come out with white paper on JWS yet nor has it certified it officially yet. Hence at this stage I would not like to go with JWS. But I would certainly keep your solution in my mind whenever we decide to go for JWS.
    Many thanks for taking your time out to reply to my query.
    Cheers

    Dear all,
    we had the same problem on our PI7.0 SP21, that CTS was not working and IntegrationBuilder was not operational, aso...
    The lock "AII_TABLES" was visible in SM12 and appeared immediately after restart or manual deletion.
    We have opened a very high message to SAP, as the recomm. from SAP Note 1602945 did no help. Once they replied we have additionaly applied SAP_JTECHS PL30 and added parameter "com.sap.aii.ib.remote.exprof.enabled=TRUE" to the exchange profile per each server node.
    After these changes and restart, the lock is not active anymore - this was implemented and tested on Dev and Test systems. We will proceed with the Prod later on, we believe it helps.
