Terminal Services profile not removed upon logoff

i've enabled separate terminal services profile on users. see no place can define these profiles cleaned when logging off.

i've tried "computer configuration\administrative templates\system\user profiles\delete cached copies of roaming profiles" setting nothing. profiles still present.

my servers getting full, there solution?

hi,

just clarify, ts profile not deleted upon log off, regardless of gpo setting.  ts profile is a roaming profile only applies when user logs on terminal server, , takes precedence on windows roaming profile, if 1 exists.

with gpo setting mentioned enabled, local cached copy of roaming ts profile should deleted upon logoff.  local cached copy stored under c:\users\<username>.  "should" deleted because in cases windows process may hold lock on of files, preventing complete deletion of profile.  example, print driver holds handle key in registry, preventing user's registry being unloaded, thus preventing registry hive file being deleted.

let me walk through typical example.  have user named jsmith, , jsmith's ts profile stored @ \\fs1\tsprofiles$\jsmith.  when jsmith logs on ts, ts profile downloaded ts server's c:\users\jsmith folder.  when jsmith logs off, changes made local copy of profile synced copy located @ ts profile path, local cached copy (c:\users\jsmith) deleted ts.

what behavior seeing?  local copies of profiles under c:\users not being deleted?
