Prevents users from changing the path to their profile folders.
By default, a user can change the location of their individual profile folders like Documents, Music etc. by typing a new path in the Locations tab of the folder's Properties dialog box.
If you enable this setting, users are unable to type a new location in the Target box.
Fix:
(1) GPO: User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Desktop!Prohibit User from manually redirecting Profile Folders
(2) REG: HKEY_USERS\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer!DisablePersonalDirChange
