Warren Simondson of Ctrl-Alt-Del IT Consultancy, has released another FREE
Microsoft Terminal Services / Citrix utility.  REMPROF* *was written to
replace the command DELPROF.EXE currently found in the MS Windows Resource
Kit. This utility offers extra features that will be of benefit to all
admins. REMPROF has the ability to delete user profiles on the local machine
based on age, username, or SID association. If a username has been deleted
from a Domain or Workgroup,  the profile often still exists with only a SID
assigned to identify it.  REMPROF can delete these profiles completely from
the file system and registry regardless of the profile age, and without
removing existing profiles of the same age.



This tool could be simply run from the command line at any time, or added as
a SCHEDULED TASK for regular cleaning of user profiles, reducing the overall
disk space used for locally based profiles.



REMPROF will only function when executed by a user with ADMIN rights to the
profile directory.
He also has a utility called BombProf that allows for Multiple profile
deletion. Go get them at:
