Adding homedrive

Schools that don't use OneDrive or Google drive can create homedrives for users. Create a fileshare on a server and append the UNC path to the templates.

Example

Changing homedrive

For schools that want to replace homedrive on a fileshare.

• Select all users in an AD group and right click in order to access properties for Multiple items
• Select the Profile tab, remove the information for the Home folder
• Apply
• Update the template with the new UNC path

Example

Use commandprompt and test the setup for 1 user by using the AddUser tool

C:\Program Files\UserManagement>AddUser.exe "<templatename>" massadd <username>

If it looks good the RunTemplates, all users will get a new homedrive

Remove homedrive

For schools that want to drop a homedrive on a fileshare and use OneDrive or Google Drive

• Giv users some time to move their files to the new cloud storage
• Remove home folder from AD users as described above
• Remove share from fileserver in order to stop people from using it
• Remove homedrive information from template

Remove setting

When schools want to remove the setting but keep the homedrives intact just remove the UNC path from the template setting.
