In this step by step video guide, I will show you how to map network drives using Group Policy Preference and item-level targeting in Windows Server 2019 Active Directory Domain.
For this video we are going to use group policy preferences and item-level targeting. In item-level targeting we are using "Member of Security Group" option as a condition to create map network drive.

Glad I could help!
Following the playlist and everything is so clear. Thank you so much again !
Excellent video!😁
Thank you for the video. I tested myself and work pretty well. I appreciate your time and efforts for all these tutorials.
I would like you to make a video regarding share folders with NTFS permission to see their functionality granting and removing users access.
Thankyou for the clear and simple explaination 👏👏👏👍👍👍
Excellent tutorial with excellent explanation
Thanks! Great tutorial 😁
so good, so simple. thank you!
Thanks bro ❤❤
Great video.But I have a query,how can we define each user quota and different folder for each user
Thanks for the great video!
One question though - lets say I have 4 users in a group. When we create a mapped drive using the GPO, 4 different drives will be created for each user or just one?
The same map drive will be created for each user.
thanks I'm from Bangladesh.
exceptional video
excellent video, thank you!
I cant thank you enough
Thankyou :)
Thanks
thanks
TY much!!!
i have question, sometime drive not show in this way then how to troubleshoot it.although policy is enabled.
can we create any start before login script via GPO ?
like : if there is a software which we want to login before logon in windows.
awesome! thank you!
Can you show how to map network share using GPO and mklink ???
If a user is member of the group, do we still need to link the ou? Thanks
does the action "delete" means it will delete the drive if it maps? It does NOT mean it will delete folders and files in the network/shared map drive? Thanks!
"Delete" action will remove the mapped drive from client computer. It just like "net use * /delete" command.
Can we specify this mapping should be applied on a particular PC only? e.g HRUser1 should have this mapping only when login to HRPC. If he login to another PC, this mapping shouldnt be there.
Would I be able to use a NAS with shared folders and the apply Group Policy? Also, would it be possible to apply READ ONLY or other permissions in these policies? I'm fairly new to this all.
It is possible to sue NAS shared folder. Second whatever permission you are assigning on the shared folder will be apply on the end user.
Hi. When decommisioning of old file server, we map network drive to a new file server file share. And on many computers mapped disk showed error, was not able to remap.
Can you tell, how to properly set gpo settings, so that this change works well on all computers - old mapped drive is removed and is set new again?
For that you can use group policy preferences with replace option. Replace option will delete the old map network drive and recreate a new one with specified settings. You also have another option name update: This will not delete the existing drive but it will only modifies the mapped drive with the new settings.
How can I create Home folders and roaming profiles for a group of users, through GPO.?
What is the difference between "create" and "update"?
please your support . the script working fine if i copied it on computer but from GP not working . please advice
why didnt you check on the show drives. and why didnt you check the reconect too
thanks - but seems your doing this drive mapping twice. If you have already setup item level target with AD Group "HR USERS", why do you also need to link the GPO to the OU "HR"?
You always have to link a GPO to something. Using HR OU is the cleanest way. Think about the administration of hundreds of GPOs. You definitely want to keep it sorted.
In this case you could also link the GPO to mylab.local, or MUMBAI - as long as the actual user is in a lower OU: mylab.local > MUMBAI > HR. If you linked the GPO to mylab.local > MUMBAI > TECH the GPO obviously wouldn't work because the TECH OU doesn't involve the actual user object.
@@avoosscorp1175 So apparently the way you think it should work is not the correct way. What are you saying? Just create a new OU and drag them users in this one. If you can't group them by function, don't. Group them by room number, group them by location, group them by anything else then, instead. What ever suits your company the best. Simple as that.
You can of course link the GPO to the whole domain and use WMI filtering functions to decide for which users or groups or site or what ever else this GPO is relevant. But have fun diagnosing errors or unecpected behaviour ;)
@@avoosscorp1175 Well I hope Trump won't be re-elected because he's a racist piece of shit who will lead this country in ruin.
Anyway, mapping network drives via GPO is the easiest thing. I would even offer a teamviewer session, just for you to help you out.
hi, i want to know how to connect a data folder to (z:HRdata) shared folder

yo how do you have Aero theme on Windows 10?
Hi What you created HR OU contains same users & Group also added, what if users different OU- will work.?
Yes. Those names are only for demonstration purpose, you can specify OU, Group and User name as per your requirement.
@@MSFTWebCast plz make a video on sharing drive for members in diffrent OUs..how to link this gpo..?..to which OU?... plz make a video.
PLEASE HELP.....when i map network drive GPO on OU - (like just users in that OU) it works fine with no issue, but when I target the security group instead users...no matter what I do it doesn't work, what to do?
If you have followed all the steps mentioned in this video then I dont think there should be any problem. Can you confirm that the NTFS permission is configured properly on Share Folder and All the Security group is stored in same OU also make sure that all the required users are member of the group which you use in group policy preferences. If you still get an error then try using security filtering for GPO instead of group policy preferences.
@@MSFTWebCast I would really appreciate if you can see by yourself...can we connect?
sir.. what if we have to share a folder to users from different OUs?? how to link this GP for these specific users???
GPO can be linked only to OU
My Mapped Network Drive removed when I try to add Home Directory,is there a conflict?
how about drive letter ?
How do I give ownership of an Accounting share to administrator?
You can find the settings on folder properties window. Click on Security Tab --> Click on Advance --> Click on Owner. Form that window, you can change the owner of the specific folder.
what is the difference between update and create?
Create: If a map drive does not already exist, it will be created. If it is already exists, then nothing will happen.
Update: If map drive does not exist, it will be created. If it is already exist, then This Action modifies the settings of an existing mapped drive. In short it will overwrite existing settings.
Hello I have an issue im trying to setup a GPO that will copy a simple file to clients however its not working for some reason.
What I have done is:
Create GPO under Users OU
Edit GPO -> User Config -> Pref. -> Files
Set:
Source file: C:\Users\Administrator\Pictures\image.jpeg (Pictures folder is shared with everyone, domain users and domain computers)
Destionation:
%CommonDesktoDir%\Myfolder\image.jpeg
Also have attempted
%Desktopdir%\Myfolder\image.jpeg
%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Myfolder\image.jpeg
But its not working, this is a test bench environment so its not critical its all for learning purposes.
P.s. for some reason when i login as a created user and click for example CMD run as admin i do not get prompted it just continues as a regular user and have access denied to check gpresult /r /scope computer
Cheers!
You need to use UNC path of shared folder in source location. Else it will try to locate the file on local computer.
@@MSFTWebCast thanks for your fast reply, so if i understood well the server will assume the file is on the client computer if i use the c:\ instead of UNC?
So it should look like this as source:
\\supermicro1\c$\Users\Administrator\Pictures\wallpeper.jpeg
This should be correct?
@@MSFTWebCast I have now tested it and it works! Thank you so much for this now things cleared up a bit and this has fixed multiple things I was doing its all clearer now! Thanks
@@sale666 yes. the destination computer will try to find the file locally..
I followed everything you said in this video and "wallah" no map drive, ever. This does not work
You can clearly see the demonstration. Right?
