Is the profile & home folder the same? It might be an open profile. See if you can remove the ntuser.dat in this folder. If not, then their registry hive is still loaded. To double-check, look at the profiles tab of my computer properties, and if you highlight this user, the Delete button will be greyed out. Either reboot the box, or unload the hive manually through regedt32 (but make sure you unload the right hive) Bruce Heavner RapidApp Sr. Network Engineer bheavner@xxxxxxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: Michael Boggan [mailto:MBoggan@xxxxxxxxxxx]=20 Sent: Thursday, April 15, 2004 12:06 PM To: 'thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [THIN] Re: locked file already did that. logged in as administrator and took ownership and gave full rights to all the files. it says it is open. > _________________________________=20 >=20 > Michael Boggan > Network Engineer/Citrix Admin > Virtual Desktop Inc.=20 > Dallas, Texas=20 > Ph: (972) 960-6400=20 > Fax: (972) 960-6445=20 > email: mboggan@xxxxxxxxxxx=20 > <http://www.virtualdesktopinc.com>=20 > _________________________________=20 -----Original Message----- From: Greg Reese [mailto:GReese@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, April 15, 2004 10:44 AM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: locked file Locked or you don't have access? Take ownership of the folder and all file and sub-folders then go in and give yourself full permission to all files and sub folders and try again.
