Hi,
I have just begun migrating my users from a standalone pc config to a new domain. A lot of them have Google Drive and Dropbox, I have run in to an issue where Google Drive doesn't recognise the Google Drive folder after the migration. The error that I get is that it cannot find it and then asks me to locate the folder, I do that but when I select it it tells me that I (the migrated user) do not have permissions to access the folder. Any thoughts on a workaround or a fix? Thanks, Julius |

Hi,
I've spoken to Google Support about this and apparently this is normal. I have managed to find a workaround where I take ownership of the files as the local admin and then add "all users" to the security permissions, this solves the permissions issue. I am using the personal edition. |

The Corporate and Professional Editions change the security permissions automatically. We will look at adding this to the Personal Edition.

OK, that makes sense then. Thanks for confirming it.
I will demo the Corporate edition on my test machines and see if we should use that instead. |

Hi,
I have used the personal edition to move users from workgroup to a domain. Dropbox is displaying an error message while launching. Is there any way to resolve the issue apart from giving permissions to dropbox folders?

Hi Vyas948,
What is the error that you are getting? I remember that when I launched DropBox after migration it would ask me if it should use the current folder on the machine (or something along those lines) it was teh default options. It was a very straight forward migration for DropBox click next, next, finish. If you are getting serious issues perhaps reinstall the app. All the data remains on the PC even if you uninstall the application. Regards, Juliusk |

Dropbox Error: couldn't access the Windows Registry. Profwiz version:3.6.1172
Windows 7 OS
Reinstalling the application and giving permissions to folders do not resolve the issue. Please help?

See http://forum.forensit.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=491
You are using an out of date version of User Profile Wizard. Issues with the registry key mentioned in the above post were addressed in build 3.6.1173. The current release is 3.7.1190. |
