If the Use first available, starting at setting is required, make sure that the following conditions are met: Resolutionīy design, drive maps are cleared when the Use first available, starting at setting is enabled. If multiple GPP policies are being applied, the order of how the drive maps are processed may lead to seemingly random removal of GPP-mapped drives. When the preference item is configured with Use first available, starting at: (or useLetter=0in the XML), the Preference client-side extension will clear all mapped drives starting with that drive latter through the letter Z. If 0, then letter is the alphabetic beginning of a range of drive letters to which the action may apply. UseLetter - If 1, then letter refers to a single drive letter on which the action should operate. This setting (denoted as the useLetter element in the drive map XML) is defined as follows at Element-Specific Attributes: Within a drive map item, there's a Drive Letter option to enable the Use first available, starting at setting. Additionally, only a subset of mapped drives that are configured through GPP are present if more than one policy is configured through drive map items.
