User Migration Directory on a Network Share
Updated: 24 May 2010 | 5 comments
Greetings,
Is there a way to have the default directory for the User Migration files be on a network share?
SETTING:
TOOLS-OPTIONS-PREFERENCES-USER MIGRATION
From there I browse to place a path, after having mapped a network share, but it will not let me select it.
Best Regards,

Marshall,
I've seen this behavior before. I recommend mapping a drive to a folder on that share with a drive letter, then browsing to it that way. Definitely map to a folder on that share, and not the root of that share. How I would do it is this:
G:\UserMigration
...where the G drive is mapped to the folder on that share, like \\machinename\folder.
I hope that helps!
Thank you,
Randy

I've mapped to a folder within the network share like you said opposed to the root path but it will still not let me select it.
