Thanks for the info. However, we experience the problem on our XenApp5
servers (Windows 2003). We've tried running delprof as a shutdown script,
startup script, and both. Ocassionally something just locks a file within
the user profile so it can't be deleted entirely, which leaves the root
folder behind. The next time that person logs into the server, a new profile
directory is created <username.domain>.
