Redirecting/encrypting all users temp folders?


Recommended Posts

I want to redirect all users temp folders to an encrypted drive (I'd be just as happy to encrypt them in place using efs but I already have an encrypted drive)

Is there a way I can make any user account on a machine redirect to a different base path or something? Or force all temp folders to be encrypted in place?

I'd prefer to do this in a scalable way and one that will affect any new users like Group Policy or something.

Any ideas?

yes I found the registry entries for this as well.

just one problem, I'd have to go round creating all the folders with the right perms or risk them sharing one temp dir. Also, if I created a .reg and a .bat to apply it at logon it would not work until the next logon...

and I can't think of another way to apply this to all users including new users.
