hi,
currently, we are looking at what policies have been deployed for a particular user and reviewing those policies. when a user is trying to access c:\users or their own profile via file explorer they get the message 'we cant open... to help keep your data safe, the location is blocked.
we wondered if its a file explorer admx/settings:
Set Allowed Folder Locations
however, looking at her device she can go to other folders via route apart from windows folder and users folder. acl output looks normal on c:\users folder
administrators - full control
System - full control
everyone - readandexecute
users - readandexecute
we are going to do a factory reset and we will investigate further if this arise again. but would like to know what policy this could of caused (it may not even be a policy BUT an AV product, ransomware detection etc)
