RE: How to recover the ClientApps folder

Hi Fabrice,

Thanks for your update.

I am sorry for the delayed response due to weekend. Please understand that
the newsgroups are staffed weekdays by Microsoft Support professionals to
answer your systems and applications questions. Your understanding is
greatly appreciated!

For you mail, you want to restore the content of the ClientApps folder
without going through a complete SBS reinstall. If you want restore the
folder default content, you just need reinstall the Client Deployment
component to restore the default contents. You can refer to the following
steps:

I. Uninstall Client Deployment component

1. Click Start, click Control Panel, and then click Add or Remove
Programs.
2. Select Windows Small Business Server 2003 and then click
Change/Remove. The Setup Wizard appears.
3. Click Next to start the wizard.
4. On the Windows Configuration page, click Next.
5. On the Component Selection page, in the Action column, change
Server Tools to Maintenance, change Client Deployment component to Remove
(if there is no Remove item, you can choose Install item directly ), and
then click Next.
6. On the Component Summary page, click Next.
7. Click Finish.

II. Then reinstall Client Deployment component again follow the guide.

If you want to change the ClientApps folder default location to another
place, you can refer to the following Microsoft white paper:

Moving Data Folders for Windows Small Business Server 2003 :
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sbs/2003/maintain/movedata.mspx

Hope this helps. If you have any further concern or question about the
issue, please feel free to let me know. I am always happy to be assistance
of you!

Have a nice day!

Best Regards,

Jenny Wu
