When a user logs through thin client to the server, gets message: your
desktop is currently blank! Please notify your administrator.
I created the same user under different name and can login fine on the same
machine. But I need to have his old account fixed because of all his emails
and other stuff. I renamed the old profile and logoff and log back but still
get the same error message.

I would appreciate any help
 
Re: Blank Desktop

What is the message from? Is it a profile error message that states " your
desktop is currently blank" ?

Thanks,
Allan

Re: Blank Desktop

Yes. It is a profile issue. I renamed old profile and re-login but it still
has the same error message.

RE: Blank Desktop

What I noticed is that when the user logins first time under his profile it
is creating two extra folders: Windows and userData. The problem is only
with one user.
All other users can login fine. I deleted his profile from Server and
re-login but still get the same error message. Other users have only:
Cookies, Desktop, Favorites,
My Documents and Start Menu. The user with login problem has all these plus
two extra with Windows and User Data.
