I am having this same problem. I would appreciate any help with this. I have tried everything I can think of but nothing works.

Are you by any chance using Elements from a "server" arrangement? I don’t speak Windows very well, so I may be off base. If you are, though, Elements wasn’t written for that kind of use. It’s a consumer oriented product geared to default to the last folder used, which is how most people like it. I’m sure not the final authority on this kind of thing, but it might be that there’s no way around this.
No, although the workstation users autenticate to the PDC at logon the applications run locally. The default share path for NT 4 which I posted above cannot seem to be changed, and it does not go to the last folder used with this Os but the same folder every time.
Sorry Beth you were right, I created a domain user account, with no group membership and a mapped local homedrive. Loaded Elements saved a file to this and set all Elements settings to the desired configuration. Logged in as administrator and copied the contents of the users profile into default user. If you are doing this make sure you setup everything you want your users to use eg printers etc.
I’m glad I was right, but it wasn’t because I really knew much about what I was talking about! I was pretty sure about the problem, but I would have been up a crik without a paddle if I’d had to fix it myself! 🙂
