    Appdata\local\pagkages preventing user profile removal?


    My conference room computers need the user profiles purged ever few weeks. It used work fine but now I receive an error stating that not all data has been removed. Whenever I look the only thing still hanging out is the appdata\local\packages folder, which will have 1 or 2 folders left in it. If I try to delete it fails, but then upon failure if I "retry" it removes the folders.


    Anyone experiencing this? If so anyone find a way to get it to stop or am I just going to have to script my way around this?

    :)

    Migrate Locale Profile to Domain


    I removed my reply because watching those instructions on TechNet I started wondering if they really work with Windows 10.

    Anyway, whatever you try create first a dummy profile, customize it a bit and move it to domain. If everything works, you can then move real profiles.

    Windows 10 roaming profile includes AppData\Local & LocalNow folders

    Existing Windows 7 & Windows 8.1 domain environment with accounts configured to use roaming profiles stored on a Windows 2012 server using DFS file share.

    New Windows 10 Pro built for testing and logged on with an existing domain account. First hint something was wrong was the "Roaming profile not fully synchronised" errors. Looking the event log reveals lots of access denied errors from the user profile service
    attempting to copy to/from AppData\Local and AppData\LocalNow.

    Looking in the new v5 profile sub-folder created automatically, there is indeed three sub-folders:

    • Roaming - expected
    • Local - shouldn't be there
    • LocalNow - shouldn't be there

    The Local & LocalNow folders are not in the v2 profile from the existing Windows 7 & 8.1 clients.

    Aside from these access denied errors and pop-up warning, including Local & LocalNow in the roaming profile is a really bad idea as it really slows down the log on & off process as they tend to contain large number of large files, e.g. cached application
    data. The whole idea of splitting Local & LocalNow out is so this temporary/rebuildable data can be kept out of the profile.

    Any idea why this is happening?

    Thanks, Rob.
