due to lots of logon problems with windows2008 & windows7, we would like to auto delete user profiles when we logoff from a w7 machine. how can this be done, any ideas? tx

Hi, you can't delete local profile with a logoff script because at that moment the profile is still locked but you can do it with a shutdown script.

edoardo, is there such a script available? tx
