Early on (like a decade ago) when I first started running into clients who were having issues with Group Policy Preferences, I usually just scoffed, and reverted them back to what I knew and was comfortable with.

Historically, when I migrate clients from a legacy system such as Windows Server 2003 or 2008 to something newer, I tended to leave well enough alone, so to speak, and just update existing logon scripts, batch files or what have you.īut, while those old methods work great for stuff like mapping network drives or deploying printer connections, they just aren’t as flexible, and do not offer the same level of control (or ease of maintenance) as some of the newer tools. Will likely have to re-link all if that is the case.I have to admit: I don’t use Group Policy Preferences as much as I probably should.


To answer your question about the PC: I have a company laptop that I will be giving back, but it’s possible that the project will have to reside on someone else’s laptop. I am not that familiar with the cpd file-anything I can do there?

I am trying to confirm the above statement before switching all my files over to my local drive.Īny recommendations on how to proceed with all the “out of sync” files? I could attempt an “update all” but wanted to know if something else would be better. CPD file exists, it is imperative that your source files are located on a local drive and backed up to a network drive as MS Access files can be corrupted if run over a network.” CPD file (a cached MS Access DB) but there are a wealth of other files used as well. Prior to starting the discussion, I searched our forum and found this by Colum McAndrew: “RH stores all the project files in a directory. Only a few one day and then the next day all were showing red. Crash? I should mention that the red warnings started to appear slowly. I thought having the source files on a network drive would be fine too, until I opened up my project last week and all the topics are showing as being “out of sync.” I could see if one or two documents had been opened without saving, but since all are showing the red warning, I am guessing that something else is going on. If I move the source documents to my local drive, are there any concerns with the project and source documents eventually being copied or moved to another local drive down the road-besides having to re-link all the documents? I had hoped that the source documents could remain on a network drive where all parties involved could have access to the help files. I am contractor and will eventually be handing off the finished project to my client. I am wondering if it is because the source documents reside on a network drive where they may have been corrupted. The project resides on a local drive (with a backup on a network drive) however, I wanted to confirm whether the source documents must also be on the local drive? I am running into an issue where the red warning triangles are indicating the linked documents are out of sync with the source documents-despite the fact that the source documents haven't moved. I am using RH HTML 9.0.2 to create a project via the "Link to Word" (Create as Reference) feature.
