I don’t think there is a command switch that you use to specify the folder. But I do find a user.config file in the following folder that you may be able to work with.

AppData\Local\IT-WorXX\Sidder.exe_Url_0bgogf1x4ayp1ujdbhkpmqbaikftfcrl\2.0.0.0

Post back how it works out for you, if you don’t mind.

Hi,

Sidder is a very handy tool, I use it to support users across UAT and Production environments. The UPD’s are split for UAT and Production. I also notice that Sidder remembers the folder path from session to session. Is there any way to start Sidder and provide a new UNC path as a switch or a regedit / system variable or something?

I want to hand Sidder to the servicedesk here so that they can quickly manage UPD’s without having to feed in the UNC for the storage. If I can control the stored UNC I can ringfence what the servicedesk are able to do.

Thanks

You can use this script to disconnect a “locked” UPD:

I like the article and I use Sidder as well because it tells you what server the PD is linked to. The problem is how to unlock the PD. I do not have a fix and the more I surf no one else has one either. Here is what I try when I get a user that gets a temp profile because their PD is locked to another server.
First I log into server manager and see if I can find the user logged into the system and Log them off.
If they do not show up in server manager I log into the RDSserver that their PD is locked to and get into the registry and delete their profile from the profile list. That sometimes releases their lock but not always.
I have also reset their password I try and log in as them on the said server and see if I can login and load their profile. Sometimes that does work and sometimes it doesn’t.
The last thing that I try is kicking everyone off the server and rebooting it. However I shouldn’t have to do that.
If you know of anyway to disconnect the PD from the session host I’m all ears.
