Hi, we have recently migrated from Desktop Authority to Group Policy with Windows Server 2016 Domain Controllers. Some of our users, not all are experiencing a quirk where after they login a Windows Explorer window stays open to the Netlogon share. No obvious error or anything not working but obivously not only inconvenience to users but I think it's dangerous to have open incase they start poking around! How do I go about finding what is causing that Window to stay open or what is going wrong? Thanks, Phil

    I believe I found the issue! The users had an empty space in their login script path where someone had removed the old slogic.bat. This link helped me figure that out.
