Why use roaming profiles and folder redirection? User profiles allow multiple users to share a Windows system and still maintain their own preferences. You can set your background to chartreuse without affecting anyone else who uses the machine. Folder redirection allows you to use Windows as you are used to, but to have files saved on the Desktop and My Documents, follow you around to each workstation. Some of the things you can set that are stored in your profile and redirected folders include: Wallpaper Screen saver Display properties - colors, fonts and sizes Shortcuts on the desktop Whether to display or not to display web content A personalized Taskbar Desktop Toolbars Settings for some applications Answer: B. File1.docx, the screen saver settings, the desktop background, and the default save location for Word The default location of Word is MY DOCUMENT.

Labbed it and answer is A. file and desktop background

after testing this in my lab i can tell you the answer is file and desktop

Answer A

C. A copy of the current custom desktop background image is stored in appdata\roaming but not the ntuser.dat which actually tells windows to use that desktop image.

c is the answer

the answer should be c

c should be correct

i believe it should be c. why whould the desktop settings be saved? these settings are in registry and in the ntuser.dat folder.

it may interest you to know that mapped drive information is actually also stored in HKU; foreach ($1 in (Get-ChildItem -Path Registry::HKEY_USERS|?{$_.name -like '*-*-*-*-*-*' -and $_.name -notlike '*_Classes'})){gci -Path ('Registry::\'+$1.name+'\Network') -Recurse}

OK, so the question doesnt actually mention roaming profiles... Just Folder redirection. Screensaver settings and desktop settings will be stored in %USERPROFILE% which if just using folder redirection, wil be the local C:\Users\<username>... it wont follow you around, only the stuff in the redirected folders.

With roaming profiles enabled, HKCU gets saved to the profile path specified in the policy setting (\\server\profiles$\user\profile). Folder redirection just prevents the contents of the well known folders being copied at login / logout. This network location will have a copy of HKCU.

A is the answer. Default save location for MS Word is the Documents folder.

Answer is A for sure! Desktop background is saved in: "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Themes\TranscodedWallpaper".

Desktop background, screen saver settings, default Word location are stored in the registry. The user registry file is not in %appdata%\roaming. So none of these will be syncronized. Only the file created on the desktop will appear on another computer, when the user logs in.
