Is it possible to hide the Terminal Server Home Drive? I have used HideCalc to hide the Server drive letters, however, in the same ADM it is not hiding the Terminal Server Home drive letter. The reason I want to do this is because they already have a network home drive and I do not want to confuse our users. I have specified the Terminal Server Home drive under Computer configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows components\Terminal Services\TS User Home Directory.

Mike,
You could use Folder Redirection in GPO and point this to the Network Home Drive from the user.The user could use the mapped Network Home drive or just use the "My Documents" wich is point to the network homedrive.
"one day not online is a day fully lifed!"
I am going to setup folder Redirection for their My Documents, Application data, and Desktop, However I do not want users to see or use anything form the Terminal Server Home Drive. I want them to save all of their work in their regular Home Drive. I just want to hide the drive letter from users. it appears the GPO is overriding the ADM telling it to hide the drive letter I think.
Make sure that you have the Hide Drives Policy set and applying to the users (loopback on the TS OU).
There are tools to confirm the policy is being applied:
GPResult and Resultant Set of Policy (MMC)
Try to hide C: and see if it is applied, then add more drives.

I found the problem. After creating the ADM file with HideCalc and importing into Administrative Templates, you must go to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Hidecalc. Click on setting Hide Drives as defined by Hidecalc and choose enable.
