regarding outlook .OST file redirection to network share

[Sravan_k]

Hi Friends,

I would like to know how can we redirect my .OST file to network share link (for example N:\share\userprofile\%username%\....) because I don't want to use writable volumes.

so far I created on ADMX file for outlook cache which looks like below

under OST location option inside, I used my network share (eg: N:\share\userprofile\%username%\....) but I can't able to write my .ost file at specified location (network share).

and also when every I open the outlook I am seeing the one small MS office configuring pop up screen for 20 seconds!

please try to help me

Thanks

Are you using a drive letter or are you using an UNC path when specifying the network share?

Hi ArnoM,

Thanks for reply, I am using UNC path, we should not use UNC path? please let me know the best way to avoid issues

[ArnoM]

Yes you should UNC path. Your example was a drive letter so this is why I asked.

ArnoM, it is not working, actually we can use either (UNC or drive letter) of one.
