I am currently testing our environment before rollout and have discovered that I am unable to recreate a User's roaming profile. After the profile has been deleted from C:\Users when the User logs back on temporary profile is created each time they log on resulting in multiple temporary profiles being created for that user: TEMP.[DOMAINNAME] TEMP.[DOMAINNAME]1. So far to resolve I have unsuccessfully tried: - Deleted the profile from the profile share and also removed any reference to it from the Remote Desktop Services Profile path before re-creating it. - Renaming the TEMP folder with the User name but further temporary profiles are created. - Copying the profile from the Profile share to the local server and renaming it without the .V2 suffix. - Adding the user to the Local Admins group when they log back onto the server. - Deleted any keys in the registry relating to that user. We are running 2 x Windows Server 2003 Domain Controllers and 4 Windows Server 2008 R2 Terminal Servers in a XenApp 6 farm. Are the profile problems related to the Windows 2003 DC's? To set up the user profiles initially we have copied the Default User profile to a User.Name.V2 file and saved on the profile share. This is working fine until the point where I have tested recreating the profile. Any help would be much appreciated. Tim Biffle reported this in the Windows 7 User Interface forum on 25/8.

Hello, deleting a profile on a computer from the c:\users folder is not enough. you also have to remove the belonging registry key, otherwise you go the above mentioned error. You can use, also on remote machines, the tool delprof2(NOT Microsoft) which does the steps great: http://helgeklein.com/free-tools/delprof2-user-profile-deletion-tool/Best regards Meinolf Weber Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties or guarantees , and confers no rights.

user information is already registered in the registry.You have to delete the user from the registry and userprofile datafolder from the c drive. Then login as the user , you can see a user profile is created.If you found this post helpful, please "Vote as Helpful". If it answered your question, remember to "Mark as Answer". MCSE,MSCITP-EA

Thanks Meinolf. The tool worked great. However there was an underlying problem that the Domain Admins group had been removed from the local Administrators group which initially stopped it from running. Thanks very much.
