Windows 11 migration and folder redirection

In addition to the migration from Windows 10 to Windows 11 there is also a change in folder redirection happening. What does that mean?

Until now following folders have been 'redirected' into your D-ITET home account:

- Desktop -> in home folder MSDesctop
- Documents -> in home folder MSDocuments

Within the change to Windows 11 following folders will be redirected also:

- Music -> in home folder MSMusic
- Pictures -> in home folder MSPictures
- Videos -> in home folder MSVideos

All these folders are viewable in 'Windows Explorer' -> 'This PC':

You can verify the source of the data by right-clicking on the folder, then 'Properties'. In the upcoming window you see the location of the origin folder. E.g. for 'Desktop':

path_to_origin.png

This results in following consequences:

1) All stuff stored in there will be backuped
2) All stuff stored in there will burden your home quota!
