I would like to know if there is any possibility to delete profile

after loggoff. Any kind of script which can be written in logoff

script so that user profile will get deleted after logoff. I have seen

delprof.exe from Resource kit but I found from other forums that it

will delete all the profiles under Documents and settings.

 

Is there any possibility to delete only particular user profile after

he logsoff.

    Vamsi,

     

    The tool in the resourse kit is meant for redundant profiles

     

    Some profiles are still locked after logoff so any attempt to delete them will

    be denied

     

    You can add in a logoff script which uses the FileSystemObject (FSO) to try to

    delete...

    I have a vague recollection that accounts in the "Guest" group

    have their profile folders deleted after logoff.

    Pegasus,

     

    Most admins disable the guest accounts though

    Newbie,

     

    Thanks for your quick response.

     

    Can I have the clear information of FileSystemObject (FSO) and how it

    will be helpful in implementing. If you could help me out with a

    simple example that would help me a lot...
