Comments Polar (Last update 11/9/2004):
I found this issue on a Windows 2003 file server. I followed recommended permission settings in KB article Q274443 on share where the redirection policy was pointed to and it resolved the problem.

N Rosser (Last update 4/25/2004):
I was getting this event for specific users only. I found the cause of this to be the fact that the “My Documents” folder contained files not belonging to the user whose folder this was. By resetting the owner to be the relevant user and checking the path location to the My Documents central file location, it fully resolved the issue.
