Modify symbolic links

Modifying symbolic links maintains users' access to documents already syncronized to every virtual desktop.
  1. Log in to a computer with a virtual desktop deployment.
  2. Adjust the target location of the symbolic links and run the script below to maintain symbolic links for the
    %userprofile%\\WatchDox
    and
    %userprofile%\\WatchDoxArchive
    folders.
    set wshShell= Wscript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") 'Sync symlink strCommand = "mklink /d ""C:\Users\%username%\WatchDox"" ""\\na1\OpenShare\Citrix\%username%\WatchDox\"" " RunCommand = wshShell.Run("cmd.exe /c " & strCommand, 1, vbTrue) 'Sync Archive symlink strCommand = "mklink /d ""C:\Users\%username%\WatchDoxArchive"" ""\\na1\OpenShare\Citrix\%username%\WatchDoxArchive\"" " RunCommand = wshShell.Run("cmd.exe /c " & strCommand, 1, vbTrue)
