Office 2010 Default File location manual override

Hi,

I've set the "Default File Location" setting in Administrative templates for Word 2010 in order to change the default Save/Open location for all users. The setting is found here:

User Config/Policies/Administrative Templates/Microsoft Word 2010/Word Options/Advanced/File Locations

Everything works fine until a user tries to override this setting manually in the options of Word. The issue is that the manual setting that the user sets does not stick. The path set in the group policy setting above overrides the user's setting.

My question is, can the Default File Location setting be set initially via GPO but be then overwritten if the user wishes?

Thanks in advance.
