  1. Logging into VPN changes my home directory


    My usual home directory is c:\users[name] however when I log into my work VPN is gets changed to Z:.

    It seems that the HOMEDRIVE and HOMEPATH environment variables are changed when on the VPN.

    Does anyone know why this would happen and how to fix it?

    Also this didn’t happen before until today
