Cookies not working in Citrix with Mandatory Profiles

If you’re using mandatory profiles with Citrix and your Cookies are not working in Internet Explorer, do the following.

1. Launch regedt32.exe
2. Click on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
3. Click on File and go to Load Hive
4. Browse to the location of your ntuser.man file and open the file
5. Give it the Key Name “ManProfile” and click OK
6. Then go to HKLM\ManProfile\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
7. On the right replace the Cookies Key Data “%USERPROFILE%\Cookies” with the path users home folder, for eg “H:\CitrixProfile\Cookies“
8. Make sure you select on ManProfile, then click on File and go to Unload Hive.  This is important or users will not be able to access ntuser.man if you do not unload the hive in registry.

This should fix the problem with Cookies in Internet Explorer.
