You need to look in the logs. It will tell you 90% of the time on this situation. Make sure you didn't fat finger any exclusions if you have any that is.

Ok thanks..will take a gander....it's a simple setup, first one I'm doing, just wondering if 2022 is maybe not fully compatible etc Have used a guide for profile container exclusions....defo fat fingered in that sense but have disabled that policy and still getting temp profiles
b
fully compatible with WS2022.

If you are using Cloud Cache, make sure the server computer accounts have r/w access to the profile share.

be aware that RedirXML Policy is not getting removed when disabling the policy, as it's stored as a reg key. You have to remove the reg key manually

Ah is it...ok I'll do that today, thanks Balint
g
But the basic stuff is as @Ray Davis says, check the logs, both in programdata\fslogix and the Windows event log. they will most likely tell you what the issue is.
k
Yup will investigate today and post my findings. Thanks for input guys.
j
2022 is fine with FSLogix
k
Just to follow up...was the exclusions file I copied it from online and seems maybe too aggressive and breaking something. Anyone got a good base redirections.xml file? Thanks again and thanks @Balint Oberrauch for removing reg key.....have been too used to ivanti for all our policies and this got the better of me.
r
use a a reference.
Redirections.txt
k
Thanks @Ray Davis Very helpful...got all these apps bar Cisco.
j
Don't use redirections.xml!!!!!

Exclude as little as possible. Here's a good base <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!--Generated BY ME FTM--> <FrxProfileFolderRedirection ExcludeCommonFolders="0"> <Excludes> <Exclude Copy="0">AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Teams\Service Worker\CacheStorage</Exclude> <Exclude Copy="0">AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Windows.StartMenuExperienceHost_cw5n1h2txyewy\TempState</Exclude> <Exclude Copy="0">AppData\Local\Packages</Exclude> </Excludes> <Includes /> </FrxProfileFolderRedirection>

Huh @James Rankin thought redirections.xml was exclusions?
j
It is. But you're not supposed to use it unless there is a very compelling reason. If you're low on storage - ditch FSLogix
All the cache will just re-cache in your session anyway
k
Ah ok, no issues with storage. We are a former ivanti house, so used personalisation. Here it's take everything bar what you don't need whereas using ivanti was exclude everything bar what you need. We thought we'd use a guide to get rid of bloat form chrome and teams etc
g
I have only seen one somewhat legitimate reason, there was bug in Adobe Cloud that caused it to fill up the profile with logdata. I moved the folder and logfile to the %temp% folder outside the user profile. That way it was automatically deleted when the user logged off. But other than fringe cases like that....
j
Teams I support because of how much storage it used to waste. Hence why it is still in my exclusions. The TempState folder is for AppVentix and the Packages is because I hate UWP apps
😂 1
But the FSLogix line was always "keep it lean"
k
Ah ok..then we will try that. If we get specific bloated folders, then try tackle each application as it comes I Guess?
j
yeah that's the spirit. I mean, you can use the FSLogix GPO to "exclude temp folders" in the first instance, and then use redirections.xml for stuff that proves so problematic that re-caching as necessary is the better option

Keep it lean at first, and establish a baseline over a bit of time. When (yes, when 🙂 ) an issue occur you can handle it. Implementing a "catch them all now" policy now will hide a lot of details in the long run.

Awesome thanks.

James is correct and spot on! Fslogix functions are not like traditional profiles. I deal with this weekly with clients. They continue to want to do exclusions. I give them some things but the file I gave you is an example. I would not take it and use it in production. It does work but it is a reference for guidance only.
k
Nah that is fine. We are used to only taking what we need with Ivanti. Now it's what we don't need, which makes things easier I guess. Looking forward to seeing how fslogix works and performance, so far so good.
