User Profiles being created on machines without logging in
Hi there, We have a strange issue with some computers. User Profiles of people who never logged on the machine are being created under C:\Users\ We don't use roaming profile in our environment. Users whose profile is created never used RDP connection or Run As computer on the afflicted computers. I did some research and the only clue I got says that it can be related to EFS, but we do not use it either in our environment. Computers afflicted were not refurbished, the current user is the first and only one using it. OS is Win 7 Professional x64. Does anyone knows how to solve that problem or were it comes from ?

Hi , When were the User Profiles created? Did they appear at the same time? Are those User Profiles which were created on these machines same or not? Tracy Cai TechNet Community Support

Tracy Cai TechNet Community Support I found different profiles created, one of them is the same on several computers and created almost at the same time on each computers (1 min delay).

Some scripts executed against remote computers will cause a user profile to be created. Check the user profile and see if it's a recognizable id for someone that may run scripts against a bunch of computers....
