Hi

 

I had this and the issue was I had "Prohibit user from manually redirecting profile folders" set to ENABLED in Group Policy. 

 

This can be found in Group Policy under User Config > Policies > Admin Templates > Desktop.

 

As soon as I switched it to NOT CONFIGURED Known Folder Move was able to sync the folders.

 

Hope that helps.

    Brilliant - thank you Michelle Adams - your post fixed it for me. We also prevent students redirecting the well-known folders using the GPO you referenced. So glad you posted as I suspect I may have lost hours of my life to this!  I hope you didn't.

      Hey Jonathan, thank you, glad to have helped. Troubleshooting it took a little while, but once I narrowed it down to GP it was just a case of testing the obvious settings. That particular GP setting is not mentioned in any of the (limited) online KFM documentation I have read, but when I think about it, it's a pretty obvious one - as long as you know it exists!
