Install the User Profile Hive Cleanup Service.  It will remove all those
pesky locks and allow you to clean up nicely.

Subject: Account Unknown profiles



Server 2k3

 

I've got a couple profiles on my server that are listed as Account
Unknown.  The delete button is greyed out for them.  I'd like to delete
them, but can't figure out how.  When I look under C:\Documents and
Settings, I see two folders there for personnel that have not been with
the organization for a couple of years now.  I'm assuming that these
profile folders are the ones showing up as Account Unknown, since they
are not listed otherwise under the Profile list.  I tried to manually
delete the folders themselves, but get an error saying the NTUSER.DAT is
being used by another user or program.

 

Any ideas on how I can get rid of these?

 

Thanks,

 

Joe Heaton
