Set-PWUserWorkingDirectory bug

Offline Kevin van Haaren over 6 years ago

Set-PWUserWorkingDirectory actually checks if the working directory you're setting for the user exists on the local machine.

If I'm changing a working directory for another user, the directory I'm changing it to NEVER exists on the local machine. I probably don't even have the drive letter they're wanting to use on my machine.

I think that cmdlet is not working the way it could. I've informed PW powershell development team suggesting to not create the folders when setting working directory.

BTW, if you run into this the work around is to use command line to do a SUBST of an existing drive to the drive letter they use, then in PowerShell use Test-Path to verify the directory exists, and New-Item to create the directory if it doesn't exist.
