Lets you add to the list of folders excluded from the user's roaming profile.

This setting lets you exclude folders that are normally included in the user's profile. As a result, these folders do not need to be stored by the network server on which the profile resides and do not follow users to other computers.

By default, the Appdata\Local and Appdata\LocalLow folders and all their subfolders like the History, Temp, and Temporary Internet Files folders are excluded from the user's roaming profile.

Note: In operating systems earlier than Microsoft Windows Vista, only the Histroy, Local Settings, Temp, and Temporary Internet Files folders are excluded from the user's roaming profile by default.

If you enable this setting, you can exclude additional folders.

If you disable this setting or do not configure it, only the default folders are excluded.

Note: You cannot use this setting to include the default folders in a roaming user profile.
