Enable Easy Start
By default, User Environment Manager does not manage any applications or environment settings after you install it. You must specify which applications and settings to manage. Although this approach takes a little more work up front, this solution prevents excessive profile growth and profile corruption, enables user settings to roam across Windows versions, and gives you granular control to manage as much or as little of the user experience as needed.
To help with getting started, the Easy Start button instantly adds many common Windows applications, including several versions of Microsoft Office, to the whitelist of applications managed by User Environment Manager. Many Windows environment settings are also added by Easy Start. You can then easily select an application or Windows setting to review and change the default settings.
Open User Environment Manager Console and Windows Explorer
You should still have the User Environment Manager management console open, as well as an Explorer window open to C:\UEMSite2\general
