Folder in My Documents

[TDJB3]

We want to create a folder in My Documents (Documents) with a shortcut to that folder.  When I edit this policy, there is not a folder for My Documents.  I try to create a My Documents folder with the subfolder in the default folders.  I have also tried creating a My Documents folder in the UserProfile folder.  Does anybody have an idea how I can do this?

BTW, the My Documents is being redirected.

You should use the 'Personal' folder token in UEM for this.

This 'Personal' Folder token represents the Documents folder. Please give it a try and let me know the result.

Pim,

Is there documentation somewhere that details a description of the folders? I looked in the UEM documentation, but it does not give any detailed information on each folder, like 'Personal'.

You can use the following folder tokens:
