Cached profiles not getting deleted

Hello,

Has anyone seen this problem? I have Windows 2003 SP2 running on a few
servers in terminal services mode with a GPO policy to delete locally cached
profiles. The problem I am experiencing is that the user’s profiles are not
getting completely deleted. The index.dat file, cookies folder and local
settings folder remain on the servers. Now every time when users login they
get a new user profile folder with their name appended with a new number
(.001 )

What can I do to make sure the profiles get completely deleted? I am already
using UPHClean

Thanks,

Lenny

Re: Cached profiles not getting deleted

There are a number of possibilities.
Check this one first:

933562 - Index.dat files are not deleted from the server when a
user logs off a Terminal Services session to a Windows Server 2003-
based computer
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=933562

and if that doesn't help, then:

944984 - The user profile may not be correctly unloaded when you
log off from a Windows Server 2003-based computer, and event 1517
is logged
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=944984
