How to Enable Roaming Profiles on Windows Server 2019 

This video is excellent. It contains all the information you need and also adds a couple of useful bits of information that I wasn't aware of. There are no unnecessary parts. Well done!

Thank you for your great work. Truly appriciated

Wow, amazing video, thank you so much!

Thank you very much for the detailed video. I have a question: I want all users when they log on to a computer to always have a roaming profile but of the same user profile. I had it in the XP environment and it worked fine even if the employee deleted all the icons on the desktop when he would log in to the computer again the computer was download from the server the specific profile I set for all users and the user was get back all the default settings I set in the first place. This situation helped us a lot to avoid glitches, whenever there was a problem for the user in the settings on the computer he would do a restart, re-enter our profile and the computer was like new. I could not recover the same situation in WIN10 I would like to know how to do it? It is important to note that to prevent the user from making profile changes I was change the "ntuser" file extension to the MAN extension instead of the DAT All this is done in a default user that all users would turn to this user I would love to know if there is an explanation on how to do this in WIN-10 Many thanks in advance

I have this configured using win server 2k19 with win 10 pro client pc. It works for some users of some computers, but others have an error that says problem with roaming profile, logged on using temporary profile. How do I fix this?

Very Nice Videos Thanks for your Tutorials

Excellent video, thanks!

Great video

Thanks sir

Videos are always great

great video!!!

Great Video! Thank you! i am about to try roaming profiles instead of folder redirection, and i have one vital question. Folder redirection works great. But windows 10 still creates a directory for every user under C:\Users. I manage a lab of shared workstations by hundred AD users. Very soon the disk get full by directories under C:\Users . AppData folder cause that issue. I redirect all the rest folders (Desktop, Document, etc). I apply the GPO that delete user profile after xx days but these cause logon slow because almost every login is "a first time login". I want to ask if with roaming profile, windows 10 still creates a local user profile directory under C:\Users? Does the GPO "Delete cached copies of roaming profile" delete the whole local profile? Thank you

roaming is profile is got corrupted but i have full backup how to recover the user desktop data.

so the GPO settings for roaming profiles are really not needed? just edit the prpperties on the users directly??

I have configured the shared folder, setup a group policy and also followed all the instructions given in this video. but somehow I could not get my desktop folders across to roaming profile . and your link for folder redirection is not working. Is there any solution to fix this issue? It seems all my setting for Startup programs and browser windows came across but just my Desktop is not. How do i fix this?

I have been trying to get my CIO to allow me to migrate our enterprise to Roaming Profiles for a while now. I’m convinced that it would make for a better user experience. However she is convinced (adamant) that there are security concerns with the possibility of passing viruses and malware from client to client. She states that she’s also concerned about share growth. What security vulnerabilities, if any, do you see that could come up with using roaming profiles?

Your videos are spectacular brother, THank you a million!! Btw I loved the way you pronounced "ROAMINGG" at 8:46 , epic my friend :) - Thanks God bless!

How to undo this? I set up roaming profiles but my users are storing lots of irrelevant data in the server. I would prefer them to store their stuff on their own computers. Will deleting profile path from the server affect their ability to access their files? Or do they store them in both sides? Thank you!

Hi, ive completed this task, and used two different user profile to test. but i get an error when logging into one user profile saying " User Profile Service - There was a problem with your roaming profile. You have been logged on with your previously saved local profile. Please see the event log for details or contact your administrator". when i check the properties, it shows up as a roaming profile. when i log into the second user, when checking the properties, it shows up as local profile and not roaming also this user folder.v6 doesn't show up on the C: drive. any help?

hi I'm having issues with creating roaming profile, I did every step from your tutorial and when I try to login the roaming profile I receive a message "We can't sign in to your account" it gave me temporary profile, all the roaming profile I've created gave me the same error

thanks

6:08 suppose i have hundred users should I do this to every user,no short cut?

1. Log on with Administrator account 2. Open Windows Server 2019 3. Open Tools, Active Directory Users and Computers 4. Create Organizational Unit (OU) under domain WPSC.ORG a. Right click WPSC.ORG i. New, Organizational Unit ii. Fill in Name for each OU (Administrator, Bookkeeping. Front Desk etc.) Is this correct to this point? 5. Create a security group for each OU a. Right click each OU i. Select New, Group ii. Fill in Name for each security group Is this correct to this point? Do i just create one 'Shared folder' for all the OU's? Thanks

5:36 I WANNA KNOW FROM THERE SUPPOSE I HAVE 100 USERS/PCS AM I SUPPOSE TO GO EVERY DEVICE AND DO THAT

It does not work I part that once worked once did not work

Hi, the best way to use Roaming Profiles is to redirect folders from User Profile. Try this maybe next time.

It doesn't work at all, there is some kind of permission problem to roaming profile share.

Roaming profiles can be a nightmare. Go with folder redirection instead.

well

(X) You have exceeded your profile storage space.

I honestly can't be the only person that can't stand an Indian accent because all I can think of is a damn telemarketer and how annoying they are. 🤷‍♂️
