Application install by user it not getting roaming back completly

A user installed dropbox on his linked Clone win 7 desktop.

All worked very well and i can see in the users Persona  folder on the fileserver that the dropbox installation is there.

However the next day when he starts his Desktop again the dropbox shortcut has changed to a genereic icon and when trying to launch it fails with an error message.

In the "local" C:\users\user\AppData\roaming\dropbox it seems like all files are there but still generic icon on dropbox.exe and it seems to miss something.

What am i doing wrong? :smileyconfused:

What kind of pool is it? Floating or Dedicated?

If its Floating it would explain this as the Dropbox application would not be installed on the new desktop.

Hi Linjo

Yes it is a Floating Pool

I may have missunderstood what could be acomplished with floating pools but i was under the impression that "all" changes med by the user is stored in the persona..

So when the user gets a refreshed desktop the persona polulates all the missing bits that the user changed..
I guess that is not the case..
