Deleting profile after a user loggoff(Not a roaming profile)

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.


Operating system: Windows 2000/XP
Server OS: Windows 2003

Re: Deleting profile after a user loggoff(Not a roaming profile)

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...
