When Windows NT roaming profile users logon to a workstation, a copy of their locally cached profile is stored on the workstation
in %SystemRoot%\Profiles.
Delprof.exe from the
AND is designed to free up disk space by removing these:delprof \[/q\] \[/i\] \[/p\] \[/c:\\computername\] \[/d:days\] \[/?\] Where: /q runs DelProf in quiet mode, with no confirmation for each profile to be deleted. /i indicates that DelProf should ignore errors and continue deleting. /p prompts for confirmation before deleting each profile. /c:\\<computername> specifies a remote computer name on which to run DelProf. /d:<days> specifies the number of days of inactivity (days is an integer). Profiles with longer inactivity will be deleted. /? displays command-line syntaxBy default, the Schedule service runs under the Local System account and has no network access. If you schedule Delprof.exe using the default context, the profile is not deleted, but it is removed from Hkey_Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList. When the user logs onto that workstation, a new profile, <UserName>.00x, is created.
To resolve the issue, change the schedule service to run in a Domain Administrator context, which also has local administrative priviledges.
